Marshawn Lynch working on reinstatement, trade to a contender now "expected"

In nine seasons, Lynch carried the ball more than 2,000 times for over 9,000 yards.

In nine seasons, Lynch carried the ball more than 2,000 times for over 9,000 yards. He scored 74 touchdowns while averaging 4.3 yards per carry.
