The perennial All-Pro guard reiterated that he made ‘the right call’ to retire during his address at The Star on Wednesday.

The Dallas Cowboys lost future Hall-of-Fame guard Zack Martin to retirement this offseason, leaving a massive hole along their offensive line in 2025. However, according to reports from DallasCowboys.

After a disappointing year with the New York Jets, 34-year-old former Dallas Cowboys standout Tyron Smith is reportedly mulling retirement.

One of the greatest Cowboys of all time announced his retirement on Wednesday in a special ceremony in Frisco.

As Zack Martin closed the chapter on his illustrious NFL career Wednesday, a familiar face watched from the crowd during his retirement speech and reflected on how one rookie guard in 2014 helped the Dallas Cowboys return to playoff form.

After 11 years of outstanding production and nine All-Pros, Martin now rides off into the sunset as one of the best to ever do it - a "twin'' with the late Hall of Famer Larry Allen, as team owner Jerry Jones put it in the Wednesday farewell press conference here inside The Star.
