Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch may return for the playoffs, according to ESPN's Sheil Kapadia.
Marshawn Lynch’s timetable unclear, can remain on fantasy benches
Marshawn Lynch has already been ruled out for Week 17, and could miss games beyond then. We break down the fantasy implications.


Lynch has already been ruled out for Week 17 despite optimism he could return for the regular season finale, and now there is no guarantee that the Seahawks will get their feature back onto the field in time for the postseason.
Via ESPN:
“I would think he can make it back [for the playoffs],” [head coach Pete] Carroll said. “That’s what we hear. It’s really up to that day-to-day kind of progression that he’s making.”
Fantasy impact: The urgency for Lynch's return has been heightened with Thomas Rawls out for the season as well, and the offense being stymied in Week 16 after being on an absolute tear prior to that loss. A committee of Bryce Brown, Christine Michael and Fred Jackson will continue to carry the load in Lynch's absence.
