The NFL world is mourning the loss of former Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Oakland Raiders running back Doug Martin. According to TMZ, Martin tragically died recently at just 36 years old.

As a rookie, he rushed for 1,454 yards and 11 touchdowns, good enough to be selected to the Pro Bowl. His stellar 2015 season earned him a second Pro Bowl nod as well as a first-team All-Pro nod.

He rushed for 723 yards and four touchdowns with Oakland before retiring at 29 years old after just seven seasons in the NFL.
