Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Doug Martin has gone bonkers the last two weeks, rushing for a combined 386 yards and five touchdowns.
After setting a team record Sunday against the Oakland Raiders, in which he scored three touchdown of 45 yards or longer, the rookie running back stopped by “NFL AM” Tuesday to discuss his play this season, his chances to win the NFL Rookie of the Year award, and of course the constant comparisons of him and Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice.
It’s a comparison Martin understands, but doesn’t necessarily agree with.
“I feel like my style is similar to Doug Martin’s,” he said.
