I'm not sure that it was reported on WGR, but it was reported in this thread about an hour ago!

Yea but right after I said it, reports came out he was signed.

Just like that the Matt Araiza nightmare saga is over. The team will move on, the media will move on, and we have a more than capable replacement.

Hopefully a multi-year deal…put this punter uncertainty to bed for a few years.  

Araiza coming back next season

seems like the best possible outcome, now we can really move past MA.

BOOM there it is. Ive been waiting for this news. Hallulujah!  We have a Punter.

This is a good signing.  Martin has very good career numbers and has punted and held in inclement weather in Denver.  Based on some stats I saw earlier (posted here), his road numbers were the same or slightly better than his home numbers, so his numbers weren't artificially inflated by the thin mountain air in Denver.  It's also noteworthy that he was originally drafted in the 5th round (by the Lions), which is very high for a punter, even higher than the 6th round pick that the Bills recently used on a punter.  There should be no rookie jitters with punting or holding this season.

The thing I like the most about Martin is that he prefers to have consensual sex with adults.

Welcome.. Happy they signed him

Reports from WGR is that Russ Brandon ran down the hall and told staff "Don't let him leave the building"

 

The staff at the XFL? Was he talking about Araiza? That guy was always about publicity.

Let's keep beds out of this... especially random beds.

Honestly I thought they’d go multiple years but oh well.

 

Hopefully Sam Martin is never a topic in this board again. If we’re talking about him in the regular season then something bad happened.
