Martinez signed with the Jets in July 2024 but was among the final roster cuts after camp before re-signing to the practice squad. The 49ers added him to their practice squad coming out of the preseason.

During his college career, Martinez played in four seasons at Nebraska and one at Kansas State, throwing for 9,752 yards to go along with 51 touchdowns and 31 interceptions. He also completed 63.6 percent of his passes.

In 2023, Martinez played in 10 games for the Stallions and made seven starts. He threw for 15 touchdowns and 3 interceptions, completing 58.5 percent of his passes for 1,748 yards and leading the team to a record of 6-1. He also rushed 58 times for 528 yards (9.7 YPC) and three touchdowns.
