1. Seattle Seahawks

When it comes to the best choices for Marshawn Lynch if he chooses to return, the Seattle Seahawks are the best choice. Yes, they have Thomas Rawls and drafted a bunch of running backs, but they’re still young and growing. By Adding Lynch, the Seahawks would have someone they could rely on that could carry the team.

There’s also the benefit of adding all of those running backs. The Seahawks could keep Lynch fresh and he wouldn’t have to worry about getting every single touch. Although he’s physically dominant, years of huge hits have taken their toll on him and being able to spread the ball around to other running backs could provide a benefit.

If they could get a healthy Lynch, the Seahawks would have a great shot at getting back to the Super Bowl. It’s clear that if he’s considering ending his retirement, that he’s got his mind on football. A focused Lynch is a scary one.

There’s not a running back that teams hate trying to tackle any month of the year. When January rolls around, the bruising back will be more of a nightmare. At the end of the day, there is no better option for him than to return home.
