Martin (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Monday. Martin's move to IR was just a formality after it was reported he would undergo season-ending surgery Thursday. The nine-time Pro Bowler also battled a shoulder injury this season, limiting him to 10 games. The 34-year-old is set to enter free agency this coming offseason.

Owner Jerry Jones said Friday that Martin's ankle injury "shouldn't be viewed as [the] end to his playing [career] at all...it should be viewed as the remainder of this season, and only that," Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. Martin battled through ankle and shoulder injuries this season, though those issues forced him to be sidelined for the Cowboys' last two games. There was optimism that he could return for Monday's game against the Bengals, but the veteran guard instead opted to undergo season-ending surgery on his right ankle. The 34-year-old Martin has anchored the Cowboys' offensive line since being selected No. 6 overall in the 2014 NFL Draft, and Jones appeared optimistic Friday that Martin will return for the 2025 campaign. With Martin done for the year, Brock Hoffman will serve as Dallas' starting right guard for the final five games of the regular season.

Martin (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's contest against the Giants, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. Martin will be unavailable for Week 13, as expected, while he continues to nurse the ankle injury he suffered in Week 11 versus the Texans. T.J. Bass appears to be in line to draw the start at right guard versus New York.

Martin (ankle) is considered a long shot to play Thursday against the Giants, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. Martin missed the team's win over the Commanders on Sunday and is in danger of missing a second straight game with the Cowboys on a short week. Assuming he misses, T.J. Bass would likely draw the start at left guard.

Martin (ankle/shoulder) will not travel with the team and has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Commanders, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports. The veteran guard will miss just his third game since 2022. One of the league's ironmen among offensive linemen, Martin will likely be replaced by T.J. Bass for Week 12.
