“I want to win every weekMartin said. “I don’t think if you ask anyone in this dressing room they wouldn’t say they try to win every week. And so yeah, you’re playing for the guys in the locker room, right? I think that’s pretty much what he said.”

“You want to play for the guys in the locker room that you go to work with every day,” Martin added. “Nothing can be changed, regardless of the circumstances.”

Martin’s response reflects his consistent commitment to the Cowboys organization. His focus remains firmly on the team’s success regardless of his current contract status.

The former 2014 first-round pick out of Notre Dame is in his final season under contract for what has been a hall-of-fame career. Through 11 seasons, Martin has started 161 games and has more Pro Bowl selections (9) than calls (7) in his illustrious career.

Parsons’ comments, expressing a desire to win a championship ahead of veterans like Martin, highlighted the respect and admiration the younger players have for their legendary teammate.

However, Martin’s response shows that he does not dwell on the future and is fully committed to the present.
