Buffalo Bills sign Sam Martin as their new punter
The Buffalo Bills have agreed to a contract with punter Sam Martin, the team announced on Wednesday night. Martin was reported to have been visiting the Buffalo facility on Wednesday. In a corresponding move, wide receiver Marquez Stevenson was placed on injured reserve with a foot injury.
Martin was a fifth-round draft pick by the Detroit Lions in 2013. After spending seven seasons in Detroit, Martin spent the past two seasons with the Denver Broncos.
Martin finished last season ranked third in the NFL in net punting average (42.8 yards per punt) and tied for fifth in the league with 28 punts inside the 20-yard line.
