WSU athletic department spokesperson Bill Stevens said Sunday that Martin Jr. has been dismissed for a violation of team rules, but declined to specify what rules he broke.
Martin tweeted in response that he was dismissed because he asked for his release from the program.
I never knew me asking for my release was a violation of team rules, Martin Jr. said in the tweet.
Leach told reporters after practice Sunday that Martin Jr. was dismissed before he requested his release.
I cut him, Leach said.

Two different sources with knowledge of the situation told The Seattle Times Sunday that while Martin Jr. did lose his temper in the locker room after the Cal game, he was suspended for the Colorado game primarily for missing a team activity, and was, at the time, warned that if he missed team activities again, he would be cut.
Toward the end of November, Martin Jr. again missed a team activity, and that ultimately led to his dismissal, sources said.
