Marshawn Lynch to former Seahawks teammate: 'I'm not going anywhere'

During Thursday Night Football's pregame show, ProFootballTalk's Mike Florio claimed Marshawn Lynch was considering a return to football. Fantasy football owners rushed to the waiver wire to pick up the talented running back, but it looks like a waste of a roster move.

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.
