Martin left the team on Oct. 28, and his representatives have blamed Incognito and other teammates for his departure, saying that Martin was fearful of “what might happen to him” if he returned.

At least two sources have implicated Incognito for alleged harassment incidents of Martin dating to his rookie season in 2012.

The NFL Players Association says they are investigating.
