Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch does not like interviews. And it was obvious during Super Bowl media day on Tuesday.
Lynch was reportedly unsure if he would speak during the mandatory media session. He did not talk with the Seattle media for most of the 2013 season, which resulted in the league office threatening to fine him $50,000. Lynch decided to speak on Tueday, but for less than seven minutes, which was enough to keep the NFL from fining him. With his obligation paid, Lynch walked away from the hour-long session.
However, Lynch did not leave the Prudential Center. (Heck, it was probably a long walk back to the hotel). Instead, Lynch hung around and spoke with teammates, wearing dark sunglasses and a hoodie to conceal his identity. NFL Network analyst Deion Sanders tracked down Lynch, though, and that's when things got weird.
Lynch started the live interview with an s-bomb, which Sanders ignored. It ended with Lynch referring to himself in the third person as "Beast Mode," his nickname.
