Seahawks Releasing Damien Martinez
The Seattle Seahawks are releasing running back Damien Martinez on Tuesday, sources told Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports. Martinez was taken by Seattle in the seventh round (223rd overall) last year, but he did not play at all in his first year in the NFL. The Seahawks will move forward with Kenneth Walker III, Zach Charbonnet, George Holani, Jacardia Wright and Anthony Tyus III in their backfield for now heading into the start of the 2025 regular season. The 21-year-old Martinez shouldn't take long to latch on with another team as RB depth, but for right now, he remains off the fantasy radar in most leagues. Martinez is big for a running back (6-foot, 217 pounds), but he still has intriguing speed and could resurface elsewhere as a interesting developmental prospect. He ran for 1,002 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2023 at Miami.
