Tampa Bay is still without running back Jacquizz Rodgers as he sprained his foot almost two weeks ago against the Oakland Raiders. Antone Smith is also out for the remainder of the season due to a knee injury.
Many fantasy football owners have held onto Martin despite the injury and that may soon pay off. The Buccaneers never placed him on the injured reserve and there was always a chance for him to return. Peyton Barber has stepped into Martin's role in his absence.
Martin finished last season with 1,402 yards off 288 carries with six touchdowns.
Receiver Mike Evans was also in attendance at practice.
