Marshawn Lynch was spotted Wednesday at the Oakland Raiders team facility, further fueling rumors that the retired running back was strongly considering making a comeback to the NFL.
It now appears as it’s all but official.
It is being reported by the NFL that he told the Raiders during his visit 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.

Lynch is still under contract with the Seahawks and will have to be traded or waived before presumably joining the Raiders, the team which he has said is the only one he’d come back to play for.
