-

The Oakland Raiders have agreed to a two-year contract to bring 31-year-old running back Marshawn Lynch out of retirement. The Raiders acquired Lynch’s rights in a trade with the Seattle Seahawks, according to a report on nfl.com. The teams swapped late-round draft picks for 2018, with the Seahawks getting Oakland’s fifth-round pick in exchange for Lynch and Seattle’s sixth-rounder. NFL Network said Lynch would get a US$3 million base deal this season, with a chance to make an additional US$2 million if he rushes for at least 1,000 yards.
