Report: Marshawn Lynch could be back with Seahawks, and please let this happen

MAKE IT HAPPEN!

BEAST MODE! BACK! IN SEATTLE!? YES!!!

That’s basically the second-by-second reaction I had to the reports — first from the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and then from ESPN’s Adam Schefter — at the possibility that legendary running back Marshawn Lynch might sign with the Seahawks in time to face the 49ers in Week 17 and then play for the franchise in the playoffs.

Even head coach Pete Carroll is talking about it like it’s close to a possibility: “We’re going to give him a really good chance to come back and play for us.”

To which I say: PLEASE. Make this happen.

Lynch brings with him so much both on and off the field.

On it, we get a player who last played a down in 2018 and was still averaging 4.2 yards per carry for the Oakland Raiders. He’s going to be fresh for what could be a Seahawks playoff run on a team that likes to rush A LOT. You can bet that if Seattle wants to sign him to replace the injured Chris Carson, he’s in shape and will no doubt be his usual Beast Mode self, and that could mean he has the power to change a playoff game with one run:

He could break Twitter if he pulls off one of those.

Off the field: this tweet sums some of it up:

This could also mean we get some classic Lynch interviews with the media, which are endlessly entertaining:

We didn’t know it until Monday, but we NEED Marshawn Lynch back in a Seattle uniform for the playoffs.
