Playing career
Martin was a playing member of the team that defeated Dublin at Parnell Park in the 2019 O'Byrne Cup final, his county's first time to win that trophy since 1988.[3][4][5] He won his second piece of silverware of 2019 when Westmeath won the 2019 National Football League Division 3 league title by a goal against Laois at Croke Park, Martin scored 0–1.[6] He spent two years as Westmeath captain until Kevin Maguire succeeded him from May 2021.[7]
His 2021 season came to an end after he sustained a rupture to his left achilles tendon during a National Football League fixture against Down.[8]
He scored a decisive goal in the 2022 Tailteann Cup Final.[9][10][11] It came days after the death of close friend Eoin Farrell.[12]
He is among his county's highest championship scorers.[13]
