Well, Lynch got it right: Faces no fine
Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch fulfilled all his media obligations during Super Bowl week and will not be fined.
NFL spokesman Michael Signora said in a statement that Lynch fulfilled the obligation to attend all media sessions prior to Seattle’s 28-24 loss to New England. Lynch never appeared for more than five minutes at any of the three availabilities.

The hat was made by and given to him by an NFL licensee, Signora said.
