Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers All-Pro running back and Boise State star Doug Martin, 36, died in police custody Sunday in Oakland, California, after a struggle with officers investigating a break-in at a home, according to Oakland police. Martin became unresponsive after being taken into custody and was transported to a hospital. The cause of death has not been released, though the Alameda County Coroner’s Office will conduct an autopsy to determine what happened. A first-round pick by Tampa Bay in the 2012 NFL Draft, Martin played seven seasons in the pros before finishing his career with a brief stint with the Oakland Raiders. Oakland police said Monday that Martin “broke into” a residence in Oakland. And when officers attempted to detain him, Martin was involved in “a brief struggle” and was taken into custody. “On Saturday, OPD met with Martin’s family. The family has requested privacy to grieve their tragic loss. No further details are being released at this time as this remains an ongoing investigation.” The officers involved in the case have been placed on paid administrative leave. Martin rushed for 1,454 yards as a rookie in 2012, and only played in 17 games with the Buccaneers over the next two years. Martin’s rebound in 2015 was significant, as he posted an All-Pro and Pro Bowl season where he ran for 1,402 yards. That offseason, Tampa Bay signed Martin to a five-year, $35 million contract extension. He later served a suspension for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy for the NFC South franchise, causing him to miss several games at the end of the year. Martin’s suspension carried over into the Buccaneers’ 2016 season. Liberty released Martin after the 2017 season, and he later signed with the Raiders as Marshawn Lynch’s contracted backup. Known for his powerful style at 5-foot-9 and 225 pounds, Martin starred at Boise State and earned the nickname “Muscle Hamster” during his time on the blue turf. Prior to the career of Heisman finalist Ashton Jeanty, Martin was rated as one of the top ballcarriers in program history, ranking third in school history with 43 rushing touchdowns and 48 total touchdowns, fifth with 3,431 rushing yards and sixth with 617 rushing attempts.
