Marshawn Lynch is expected to return to action after a two-game absence and start today against the Panthers.
But is he a safe fantasy play?
Let's start with usage. Pete Carroll said earlier this week that Lynch should be able to handle his usual workload, and that's not just lip service. The team has kept data on Lynch and used it to determine how he's been recovering from the hamstring injury he sustained in Week 3 against the Bears. The Seahawks wanted to make sure they were looking at the big picture when determining when Lynch could return.
