Beast Mode is back in action, but this time, off the field! Marshawn Lynch, who was traded to the Seattle Seahawks in 2010, became a legend during his run. He racked up four straight Pro Bowl selections and earned a first-team All-Pro nod. He even helped lead the Hawks to back-to-back Super Bowl appearances in 2013 and 2014, winning it all in Super Bowl XLVIII. After a few early retirements, comebacks, and finally hanging up his cleats for good in 2020, Lynch hasn’t slowed down one bit. Now, he’s making waves again, stepping up for the city off the field alongside another big name, proving that Beast Mode never really turns off.
Marshawn Lynch and NFL veteran Marcus Peters are financially contributing to the Seattle Seawolves Rugby team. Yes, you heard it right! On Thursday, this rugby team’s official X account announced, “We are excited to proudly announce the addition of two influential sports figures, @moneylynch aka “Beast Mode” and @marcuspeters, as new investors in the organization.”
This new partnership isn’t just about rugby – it’s about bringing the Pacific Northwest even closer to the game. Hence, Lynch and Peters’ team is not just playing matches; they’re building a real connection with Seattle and all the communities around it. It’s a fresh start, full of heart, and honestly, it feels like something bigger is on the way.

Speaking about the same, Lynch, in an interview, said, “Rugby is about culture, community, and respect—and when this opp presented itself, I was with it, cause you already know that’s what imma about. This move isn’t just business. It’s about building something with substance and purpose. The Seawolves are creating something dope in the PNW, and I’m here for it.”
Earlier this year, Marshawn Lynch had a proud moment that spoke louder than any touchdown. He was honored with the Paul G. Allen Humanitarian Award at the 90th annual Sports Star of the Year Awards, the same night the Seattle Seawolves were up for Sports Story of the Year. This award wasn’t about stats or trophies, it was about heart. Lynch earned it for the real work he’s been doing, not just in Seattle and his hometown Oakland, but even all the way in Haiti. It’s proof that no matter where life takes him, giving back is still his biggest win.
