He’s back! Marshawn Lynch is active. He’ll start. He’ll play. He’ll go Beast Mode. There will be much rejoicing.

Lynch hasn’t played in nine weeks after surgery to repair a torn abdominal muscle. Christine Michael moves back to the backup role, but will still likely see 5-ish carries today.

The Seahawks are clearly confident in Lynch’s ability to play the entire game. They’ve left Bryce Brown inactive.
