Report: Marshawn Lynch has told Raiders of intention to come out of retirement
A Beast Mode return is reportedly in the cards.
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, running back Marshawn Lynch has reportedly told the Oakland Raiders that he intends to come out of retirement.
Retired RB Marshawn Lynch did, in fact, tell #Raiders he intends to un-retire and play again, I'm told. It's a long process, tho #BeastMode.

There’s quite a bit to go through before this becomes anything close to official, as Rapoport notes. He’ll need to file paperwork to be reinstated, and then the Seattle Seahawks will need to move his rights to the Raiders, where he wants to play.
Lynch has visited Oakland and things seemed to be pointing this way. Now, it appears that it’s only a matter of time before we see Lynch on the gridiron again.
