Zack Martin, a standout NFL guard, is contemplating retirement following a season-ending ankle injury, the first major injury of his career. At 34, he has established himself as a likely Hall of Famer but must recover mentally and physically before deciding whether to play again. He expressed the need for complete health and commitment to the sport after a challenging 2024 season with the Cowboys, marked by numerous injuries and underperformance. His decision-making process is ongoing, involving discussions with his wife and focusing on his mental readiness for another season in the NFL.
First off, I want to try to get healthy. [I'll decide] here in the next month, six weeks. Me and my wife have been talking about it.
Just mentally, if I'm ready. I know what it takes in this league and what all goes into it. I think I just need to get my head mentally around if I want to commit to that for another year or not.
