Pete Carroll: Seahawks, Marshawn Lynch ‘Working Through’ Issues

Coach Pete Carroll says he and the Seattle Seahawks are working on their relationship with running back Marshawn Lynch.

Marshawn Lynch is in the midst of yet another great season for the Seattle Seahawks, rushing for 813 yards and nine touchdowns through 10 games.

However, Lynch has made it fairly clear that he’s not particularly happy with the Seahawks, recently calling out the organization and telling NFL.com that he wasn’t sure if he’d still be on the team next year.

"“Do I think I’ll be gone after this season?” Lynch repeated, pausing to consider the question. “I don’t know, man. The Seahawks, their front office gets in the media; they talk a lot. I don’t talk too much. I just play the game."

But it appears things are getting better between Lynch and his employer.

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll spoke about the matter Monday (H/T ESPN):

"“We’re working through it,” Carroll said when he was asked on “Brock and Salk” about the status of his relationship with Lynch. “Marshawn is a very private person and we’ve all learned that and we’ve respected that about him for years. I’ve respected the heck out of that when we got to the Super Bowl last year and everyone was clamoring and all that."

It would no doubt be the best move for the football team for the Seahawks to work out their issues with Lynch and keep him for next season. He’s one of the NFL’s premier backs and has shown little signs of slowing down.

ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reported in October that the Seahawks will not bring Lynch back in 2015.
