Martin, who will finish serving a four-game PED suspension over the first three games of the 2017 season, was placed on the reserve-suspended list Saturday, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Naturally, the move was completely expected, given Martin's current status. The former Pro Bowler provided plenty of reason for optimism in training camp and preseason, rushing nine times for 41 yards over the first two exhibitions before totaling two yards on two carries in the third preseason game. Martin flashed impressive quickness and cutting ability during camp practices as well, and he could prove to be an excellent fantasy asset once he returns to action in Week 4. For the time being, it appears he'll have one less competitor for playing time to worry about upon returning, as the Bucs released fifth-round rookie Jeremy McNichols on Saturday.
