The Bellevue Police Department has put out a statement clearing Marsahwn Lynch from any wrongdoing in a possible assault case, stating “The Bellevue Police Department has determined that Marshawn Lynch was not involved in this incident in any way. This case remains an open and active investigation. We appreciate the cooperation we have received from Mr. Lynch and the Seahawks organization during this investigation.†(Curtis Crabtree on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
The three-ring circus that has followed Marshawn Lynch during this training camp may be coming to a close. The team has stated they will try and get him on the field this friday, but next week's preseason game against the Bears seems a better bet. Normally I would advise against drafting 28 year old backs coming off huge workloads and surrounded by distractions, but no one in the league has a skill-set quite like Lynch's, and he remains the feature back until further notice. He's still draftable in the 1st, and a must draft if he slips to the second round.
