Marshawn Lynch has surgery, Rawls takes over for Seahawks
“He knew of the Seahawks and he also understood the role that rushing has with Marshawn Lynch and he said, ‘I’ll go with you'”.
“The doctor was very optimistic about a quick recovery”, Carroll said.
Carroll said that while there is also “a chance” Lynch will not be able to return for the regular season, Meyers and his staff have given the team all indications he can return before the end of December. Lynch could be out for over a month and fantasy owners should look at Rawls, while Tyler Lockett is a solid waiver pickup with Doug Baldwin dealing with an injury for Russell Wilson. It was against the Niners – a team comically, albeit inaccurately, described by some as equivalent to a high school team. With an aggressive defense that suffocates, the Steelers’ offense will have to find holes to make things happen. In 82 games, Lynch rushed for 6,347 yards and 57 touchdowns and caught 158 passes for 1,309 yards and eight TDs.
It was not long ago the 49ers and Seahawks combined for the best rivalry in the NFL. He has 604 yards on 101 carries this season.
And he did all this behind the offensive line that has been criticized from Day One and a starting tight end who isn’t famous for his run-blocking ability. The Seahawks are a game out of a spot in the postseason. In NFL practice-report parlance, limited participation is defined as when a player takes any less than 100 percent of his usual repetitions, so it’s not necessarily indicative of a significant injury.
This game marked the first since quarterback Colin Kaepernick was put on season-ending injured reserve with a torn labrum in his left shoulder. Eliminate those and it was 50/50. Of course, Rawls is replaced with another, more vulgar word, but for the sake of this article, we’ll pretend the iconic rock band foresaw the emergence of a stud running back. Lynch did not practice last week in the hope he would be able to go against the 49ers. He’s playing every play as if it’s his last. So I don’t know that. “I think that’s a decision he’s going to have to make, when it comes a time to make that”.
“I told him it’s going to be hard to do that”.
Error: The NFL said Buffalo should have had the chance to run at least one more play in its 20-13 loss at New England on Monday night. And Rawls has younger, fresher legs.
However, in February, retired Seahawks fullback Michael Robinson shared that his friend was thinking of retiring as he wanted to enjoy more important aspects of his life. His 255 total yards from scrimmage were third-most in franchise history behind running backs Shaun Alexander’s 273 in 2001 against the Oakland Raiders and Hall of Fame wide receiver Steve Largent’s 261 against the Detroit Lions in 1987. But it’s been a different story for Lynch this season.
