2016 was not kind to Doug Martin. He injured his hamstring in week two, and would miss the next seven games with the injury.He returned in week 10, and was a healthy scratch in week 16, before being suspended days later for four games for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy. This suspension will conclude after Tampa Bay’s third game in 2017.
In the six games following his return from injury, Martin struggled to replicate his past success.His best game was in week 11 vs. Kansas City, where his performance earned him an overall PFF game grade of 80.
