Every morning, we'll round up local and national Seattle Seahawks-related links.

According to the team's web site, Marshawn Lynch is headed to Egypt as part of the American Football Without Barriers (AWFB) program:

The expedition to Egypt marks the non-profit organization's first trek to Africa, where it will link up with the Egyptian Federation of American Football (EFAF), Egyptian Ministry of Youth and Sports, and Egyptian Ministry of Tourism to teach the sport to more than 450 Egyptian players and football enthusiasts. The NFL players have also designated two days to community outreach, including a visit to a children's cancer hospital.
