Houston Texans 2021 player profile: DE Jacob Martin

Jacob Martin was a byproduct of the Jadeveon Clowney trade in 2019. What can the edge rusher bring to the 2021 Houston Texans?

Going into the 2020 season, Jacob Martin said it was his goal to record double-digit sacks on the year. Although he did not come close to accomplishing his objective, Martin’s finished last season tied for the third-most sacks on the team.

Talent has never been an issue for Martin. But finding snaps among several veteran players at linebacker was the primary reason why the 25-year-old prodigy rarely saw the field in his first two seasons in Houston.

Will a new defensive coordinator and a position change result in Martin finally finding his niche with the Texans?
