Marshawn Lynch may have played his final game in the NFL but as a veteran he wanted to impart some wisdom with some of the younger players in the league.
After the Seahawks loss to the Packers on Sunday, Lynch used much of his postgame press conference advising players to take care of their minds, bodies and finances.

It’s a vulnerable time for a lot of these young dudes they don’t be taking care of their chicken right you feel me…I’ll tell ya’ll while ya’ll in it, take care of your bread so when you’re all done you can go ahead and take care of yourself. So while you’re at it right now, take care ofa’ll bodies, take care of ya’ll chicken, take care of ya’ll mentals because we’re not lasting that long
Lynch has been notoriously frugal with his money and according to several reports has saved up a majority of what he’s earned in the NFL.
Hopefully players will listen to what Lynch is trying to say because a lot of them end up broke by the time their short NFL careers are over.
