The former Duke product matched Folk kick for kick early on in camp, but once the games started, he was wildly inconsistent, allowing Folk to stay put.
With a bloated cap figure of $3 million next season, the Jets will likely give Martin every opportunity to show more consistency and steal the job from Folk.
