Las Vegas Raiders

Marshawn Lynch suspended one game
Making contact with an official
By: Mike Krueger | Oct 20 2017, 7:30 pm

Oakland Raiders RB Marshawn Lynch has been suspended without pay for one game for unsportsmanlike conduct in Thursday night's game against the Kansas City Chiefs, when he made contact with a referee. The referee was diffusing an active confrontation in which Lynch was not a participant. (ESPN)

FFToday's Take: Lynch came running from the sidelines to insert himself into a scrum between Raiders and Chiefs players and in the process grabbed and pushed an official. Assuming this case isn't appealed all the way to the Supreme Court, Lynch will miss Week 8 against Buffalo. DeAndre Washington and Jalen Richard will likely split the RB workload in Lynch's absence.
