Per @MortReport, the @Seahawks have grown tired of Marshawn Lynch's ways and he's not expected to return next season.
— NFL on ESPN (@ESPNNFL) October 26, 2014 Lynch recently expressed his frustration on Twitter with the Percy Harvin trade, and Ian Rapoport of NFL.com says that there has been "very little to no" communication between Lynch and head coach Pete Carroll. Rapoport goes on to say that the team's commitment to Lynch is waning in an effort to cement quarterback Russell Wilson as the team's locker room leader.
.@RapSheet: "What you are seeing now is the Seahawks transition to Russell Wilson as the sole leader of the locker room."
— NFL Media PR (@InsideNFLMedia) October 26, 2014 Robert Turbin and Christine Michael are the primary options in house if the Seahawks let Lynch leave in the offseason. Michael was the team's second-round selection in the 2013 NFL Draft. Rapoport notes that the team could draft another option early next year.
.@RapSheet: "I would not be surprised if the Seahawks took a RB very early in the draft and essentially replace Beast Mode on their roster."
— NFL Media PR (@InsideNFLMedia) October 26, 2014 Lynch is fourth in career rushing yards on the Seahawks’ all-time list with 5,044 yards. He has 97 carries for 420 yards and three touchdowns this season.
