Lynch says agent has 'been in talks' with Seahawks for potential return

We may not have seen the last of "Beast Mode" in the NFL after all.

Marshawn Lynch came out of retirement for a second time late in 2019, signing with the Seattle Seahawks prior Week 17 after the team lost three running backs to injury.

Though it was assumed his career was over after Seattle was eliminated from the playoffs, the 34-year-old tailback refused to close the door on playing football in 2020.

"Well, it's almost on that 'expect the unexpected,'" Lynch told Scott Van Pelt on Monday, according to ESPN's Brady Henderson. "But just as far as right now, what I do know is, (I'll) keep it solid. My agent (Doug Hendrickson) has been in talks with Seattle, so like I said, we'll see what happens.

"If it works out and I get back up there, it is what it is. And if not ... I'm looking good. So I ain't really trippin' too much."

Lynch carried the ball 30 times for 67 yards and four touchdowns in three games - including playoffs - last season. He's a five-time Pro Bowler and helped the Seahawks capture Super Bowl XLVIII at the end of the 2013 campaign.

Seattle will likely look to add a veteran to its backfield as Chris Carson and Rashaad Penny return from major injuries.
