Even the most pessimistic Dallas Cowboys fan couldn't have predicted the 2024 season to go this poorly. The team is 3-6, ravaged with key injuries and far away from playoff contention barring a miracle.
Now Dallas has to worry about potentially losing one of the franchise's greatest players ever after the season. Micah Parsons recently raised some eyebrows when he suggested that this could be offensive guard Zack Martin's last season.
The future Hall of Famer is still playing at an elite level and was named First-Team All-Pro as recently as last season. However, he's 33 now and the idea of playing for a new head coach next season may not be appealing.
Despite the speculation, Martin made it clear that he's still committed to winning in Dallas no matter how grim things are looking.
"I want to win every week," Martin said told reporters on Thursday. "I don't think if you ask any guy in this locker room, they wouldn't be saying they're trying to win every week. And so yeah, you play for the guys in the locker room, right? I think that's kind of what he was saying."
"You want to play for the guys in the locker room that you go to work with every day," Martin added. "That's nothing to change no matter what the circumstances are."
The Cowboys have an uphill better the rest of the way with quarterback Dak Prescott out for the year. Regardless, it doesn't sound like Martin is ready to check out when it comes to football quite yet.
