Marshawn Lynch with another big game despite back tightness vs Redskins
by Michael White | Tue, Oct 7th 1:23pm EDT
Lynch finished with 72 rushing yard on just 17 carries, adding another 5 receptions on 6 targets for 45 yards and yet another receiving touchdown. He did not start the game due to tightness in his back and needed extra time on the exercise bike before taking the field.
Fantasy Impact:
Lynch has a history of lower back pain and he and the Seahawks' staff have done a tremendous job managing it throughout his time in Seattle. It's worth keeping an eye on, but owners should not expect it to affect his performance on the field. Performing is certainly what Lynch has done thus far as he currently sits as the number 2 scoring RB in standard formats, despite the Seahawks already having their bye in week 4. He's a top flight fantasy star every week going forward
