Marshawn Lynch - Seattle to cut back Lynch
Source: The Huddle - May 9, 2012 at 10:38 PM
The Seattle Seahawks would like to cut down on the number of carries RB Marshawn Lynch gets because they want to keep him healthy throughout the season. Lynch received a career-high 285 carries in 2011.
Huddle Up: Don't put too much stock into this because every team with a workhorse back says they'd like to trim back the guy's carries. Lynch is still the top dog in a crew with Leon Washington and rookie Robert Turbin (Utah State). Justin Forsett isn't expected to be re-signed. If you're really looking to nit-pick on Lynch, take a look at the new four-year contract he got this offseason. Lynch is guaranteed $17 million over the next two years. Will he still run angry with a fat wallet in his back pocket?
