Martin joined the Niners just before the season began as a walk-on, the first in head coach Cara Consuegra's six seasons.
"I love having you on our team because No. 1, you're a servant leader," Consuegra said in a recorded video. "…You perform your role all the time to make this team better. At the same time, you don't settle on that either. You come into practice to get better and to make our team better.
