2025 Fantasy Outlook
Martinez is unlikely to beat out Tyrod Taylor for the backup role behind Justin Fields, but the 2024 UFL MVP could stick around as the Jets' third quarterback again after spending most of last season on the practice squad. The 25-year-old Martinez has a dual-threat skill set, as he was the UFL's leading rusher during his MVP campaign while finishing third in the league in passing yards. Read Past Outlooks
Released by the 49ers in November of 2025.
Waived from practice squad
The Jets waived Martinez from the practice squad Tuesday, Susanna Weir of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Martinez was signed to the practice squad and elevated to the active roster in Week 15 to serve as the No. 2 quarterback behind Brady Cook. The quarterback's waiving signals that at least one of either Tyrod Taylor (groin) or Justin Fields (knee) will be available for Sunday's game against the Saints. Martinez will now be placed on waivers, and if he clears will become a free agent.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could take first-team reps
Martinez could take first-team reps in practice this week due to injuries to both Brock Purdy and Mac Jones, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Martinez has served as the No. 2 quarterback behind Jones during the latter's three starts in place of Purdy this season, but he's yet to see the field for his first NFL regular-season snap. Martinez nearly did have to enter the game in San Francisco's Week 5 overtime win over the Rams when Jones took a hard hit to his knee at one point, but the latter never missed a play. Martinez is an unknown regular-season commodity at the NFL level, but he put together a solid preseason and also threw for 1,748 yards with a 15:3 TD:INT while adding 528 rushing yards and another three scores over 10 games with the UFL's Birmingham Stallions in 2024.
