Could Doug Martin Reach Free Agency?

Bucs Nation, we may have a little bit of trouble here. Trouble in terms of whether our star running back, Doug Martin, will be back in 2016 after all. The reports are starting to circulate.

A few days ago, we reported that Martin likely would be returning in 2016. Adam Schefter advised that the two sides would come together for a deal. Well, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times is speculating otherwise. His understanding is that Martin is looking to “hit the jackpot”, coming off of his strong 2015 performance, and that the Bucs might allow him to test free agency before deciding whether or not to bring him back.
