Marshawn Lynch, who until recently was a man of no words when it came to the media, is now a man of few words, but to avoid further fines from the league, he spoke following practice for the second time in as many weeks. As was the case last week, Lynch was brief in his answers, though this week’s session lasted a bit longer thanks to some rapid-fire questions, as well as the presence of fullback Michael Robinson, who stood next to Lynch in the locker room with his arm around the running back.

So here you have it 3 minutes, 45 seconds with Lynch (warning, the music Lynch has playing at his locker may contain explicit language).
