per Mike:
“I played a little bit of defense my senior year in high school, and always been a fan of the physical side of the football game,” Martin said in the Packers.com story. “I feel like that’s one of the reasons we fall in love of the game, because there’s nothing like it.
“There’s nothing like that physical side where you truly get to punish opponents, especially in the cold. We love that up at Minnesota, we love playing in the cold.”
Although he’s expected to have a chance to compete for playing time at linebacker, Martin’s first chance to impress the Packers might be on special teams.
“He already knows that special teams is going to be a big part of his game to make this team and help this team win,” Ross said. “He’s a guy who can do it and who wants to do it.”
Go Gophers!!
