ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Oakland Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch was back practicing on his old high school turf this week, and if not for his one-game suspension, Lynch could have made a return to his old NFL stomping grounds Sunday.
Lynch will miss what would have been his first game at New Era Field since being traded by the Buffalo Bills to the Seattle Seahawks
In his almost six seasons with Seattle, ending with his surprise retirement after the 2015 season, Lynch played his former team only once: a 50-17 Seahawks win in 2012 in which Lynch ran 10 times for 113 yards and one touchdown.
