Doug Martin, the former NFL running back, died at 36 while in police custody in California after an alleged home break-in and a brief struggle with Oakland officers. He became unresponsive, was taken to a hospital and later died, police said. His family announced his passing, calling the cause of death unconfirmed and requesting privacy. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where Martin was a first-round pick in 2012, mourned his loss, recalling his record-setting rookie season, multiple Pro Bowls, and the 'Muscle Hamster' who also finished his career with the Raiders in 2018.
