But he could emerge as a bigger name within the league and nationally, as he enters his third season as a starter,” Rittenberg wrote about Martin in the article. “Martin has a big frame and the ability to disrupt offenses in different ways. He had four sacks in 2022 and 13 tackles for loss over the past two seasons. After being limited in practices last fall by illness, Martin has been a full participant this offseason.”</p><p>While Martin may not be the loudest guy on the sidelines and on the field, he looks to lead by example for WVU in 2024. As a senior who has seen a lot of playing in his time in Morgantown, he will be looked to as a veteran leader for the Mountaineers defense this season.</p></div></body>
