Marshawn Lynch is indeed unhappy with his contract

Jun 14, 2014

Former Seahawks safety Jordan Babineaux, who now works for the NFL Network, said on the NFL Network that he spoke with Marshawn Lynch on Thursday and that Lynch — who has two years left on a four-year contract worth up to $30 million — indeed wants to be paid a little more.

And in a separate interview with KJR-AM, Babineaux said Lynch is looking for a “small token of appreciation” from the Seahawks.

Reached tonight by the Times, Babineaux confirmed that money is at the heart of the issue, specifically that Lynch would like to get some more this season, given the realities of NFL contracts and that there’s a chance Lynch wouldn’t be with the team in 2015.

“This year is more (important) than the last year of the deal,” Babineaux said. “It’s this year.”

Fantasy Impact:

Babineaux went on to say that Lynch could still decide to retire. We're not sure if the Seahawks are going to respond to Lynch's tactics as it would set a dangerous precedent. Stay tuned.

Saints RB Alvin Kamara off injury report ahead of Week 15

The Saints officially listed QB Derek Carr (left hand/concussion) as doubtful for Sunday vs. Washington. Jake Haener will make his first NFL start.

RB Alvin Kamara (illness) is off the injury report and good to go.

Related Players: Kendre Miller

Fantasy Impact:

It would have been an easy click for a Kendre Miller week if Kamara were forced to miss, but this puts the kibosh on that. Fire Kamara up as an RB2 this week in a game that may feature him even more than usual with no Carr.

Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker Doubtful for Week 15

The Seahawks list RB Kenneth Walker III (calf) as doubtful for Sunday's game.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

Looks like a clear runway for another Charbonnet week in what should be a tightly contested game against the Packers at home. Fire him up as a fringe RB1/2.
