After sitting out last season, Marshawn Lynch decided he was going to return to the NFL but only if he got to play for his hometown Oakland Raiders. The Seattle Seahawks helped make his wish come true by trading the running back, along with their 2018 sixth-round draft pick, to the Raiders in exchange for their 2018 fifth-round pick.
On Sunday, Lynch played his first regular season home game in the silver and black and he put on quite the show for everyone in attendance, both on the field and on the sideline.
Lynch came through and entertained the fans even when he wasn’t in the game and even LeBron James couldn’t get enough of Beast Mode’s moves on the sideline.
The 31-year-old running back finished the day with 45 yards on 12 attempts and he also scored his first touchdown as a member of the Raiders.
It’s safe to say Lynch loves playing in front of his hometown and they love having him on board.
