Adrian Martinez

26-Year-Old QuarterbackQB
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Martinez is unlikely to beat out Tyrod Taylor for the backup role behind Justin Fields, but the 2024 UFL MVP could stick around as the Jets' third quarterback again after spending most of last season on the practice squad. The 25-year-old Martinez has a dual-threat skill set, as he was the UFL's leading rusher during his MVP campaign while finishing third in the league in passing yards. Read Past Outlooks

January 21, 2026
San Francisco signed Martinez to a reserve/future contract Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Martinez spent most of the 2025 season on the 49ers' and the Jets' practice squads, taking just one snap with San Francisco in Week 9 against the Giants to execute the game-ending kneel down. It appears the 49ers saw something they liked in Martinez, though, so he'll be staying with them to begin the 2026 league year.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could take first-team reps
QBSan Francisco 49ers
October 8, 2025
Martinez could take first-team reps in practice this week due to injuries to both Brock Purdy and Mac Jones, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Martinez has served as the No. 2 quarterback behind Jones during the latter's three starts in place of Purdy this season, but he's yet to see the field for his first NFL regular-season snap. Martinez nearly did have to enter the game in San Francisco's Week 5 overtime win over the Rams when Jones took a hard hit to his knee at one point, but the latter never missed a play. Martinez is an unknown regular-season commodity at the NFL level, but he put together a solid preseason and also threw for 1,748 yards with a 15:3 TD:INT while adding 528 rushing yards and another three scores over 10 games with the UFL's Birmingham Stallions in 2024.
