Seattle Seahawks running back doesn’t really like speaking to the media, which has gotten him in a bit of trouble in the past. Lynch has already been hit with two $50,000 fines for not making himself available to the press this season, so it appears he’s found a loophole.
He’ll speak, but he won’t say much.

Lynch answered “yeah” to just about every question asked to him following Sunday’s win over the Arizona Cardinals, only speaking at length about an upcoming event for his foundation, which he wasn’t even asked about. So, even though he spoke to the media, he offered them pretty much nothing that they could use in their post-game stories.
A lot of people will find this funny, but it’s pretty unfair to the media, who are just trying to do their jobs and report on the game. It’s not like they asked him any ridiculous questions, either. If Lynch actually wanted to avoid all the media controversy he could easily do it by being a grown up for a couple of minutes.
He’s a headache when he doesn’t speak, he’s a headache when he does speak…you can’t really win (off the field) with this guy.
