According to former Seahawks fullback and Lynch’s old backfield teammate, Michael Robinson, “Beast Mode” is staying retired. Robinson said he received a ton of text messages about the report, so he spoke with Lynch directly.

“I called Beast Mode,” Robinson said on a Periscope session Friday. “Record this, everybody, please. Marshawn Lynch is retired. He told me from his own mouth. He said, ‘Dude, I’m not going anywhere. I’m as busy as I’ve ever been.’ He’s in Africa, he’s in Australia, he’s all over this world helping people.”
Watching Lynch play again would have been exciting, but Robinson was adamant when he said, “Marshawn Lynch is retired.”
The dream ended before it even got a chance to really get going.
