Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch is officially active for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. Lynch has been dealing with an abdomen injury, and was questionable heading into Sunday's contest. He'll likely not see his usual workload, but Lynch is capable of big plays any time he touches the ball. Running back Thomas Rawls is expected to see an uptick in touches with the Seahawks likely using some caution with Lynch's snap count. The Cardinals are fourth in the league in allowing the fewest rushing yards per game.

Fantasy impact: Despite the tough match up, and despite playing at less than 100 percent, Lynch is still in the RB1 conversation. Fantasy owners are likely left with few options, considering the Seahawks and Cardinals are in the final game of Sunday. Rawls makes for an intriguing RB3, but his floor is dangerously low. Lynch simply needs to get hot on the field for a few drives in order for a worthwhile fantasy week.
