When he had something to say, Marshawn Lynch was never one to hold his opinion while forging a 12-year NFL career with brash, straight-talk bravado that mirrored the punishing on-field exploits of the former Seahawks star nicknamed \u201cBeast Mode.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Those traits will seemingly serve Lynch well in his new role as the first-ever chief brand ambassador for the NFL Players Association, which will\u00a0work with retired players and current NFL athletes to \u201cget the most out of football, providing strategic support and insight for the many athlete-driven programs, resources and revenue-growth opportunities available to players.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m always trying to make the most out of my time and opportunities,\u201d Lynch said in a statement released by the NFLPA. \u201cYa feel me? If you make it through pee wee, high school, college and you\u2019re lucky enough to call yourself an NFL player, you\u2019re in a situation to create and take part in hella opportunities. But you have to understand that you only get a little bit of time in that uni, so you got to max it out and put yourself in a position to make plays on and off the turf.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Taken in the first round of the 2007 NFL draft, Lynch began his career in Buffalo and spent three full seasons with the Bills before being traded to Seattle during the 2010 season.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 35-year-old Lynch played 7\u00bd years (2010-15, 2019) in Seattle where he had a dominant run of four straight Pro Bowl seasons, including a championship run with the Seahawks in 2013-14.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Following a brief retirement and sitting out the 2016 season, Lynch played two years with the Oakland Raiders (2017-18) before rejoining the Seahawks in 2019 for a three-game stint, including two playoff appearances.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Away from football, Lynch has developed several business ventures, including Beast Mode apparel company, Beast Mode Productions, a film and television company and Beast Mode Marketing, which represents athletes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Additionally, Lynch launched Dodi Blunts, a California-based cannabis company, joined the ownership group of the Oakland Roots SC of the USL Championship men\u2019s soccer league, and bought into the Professional Fighters League, a mixed-martial arts organization.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cFew players have used their platforms to build leverage for both their individual success as well as the success of all players like Marshawn has \u2013 all while remaining true to himself and his values,\u201d said NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith in a statement. \u201cHaving him on board as our chief brand ambassador and mentor who has been in their shoes is a huge win in furthering our mission as a full-service union to our men on and off the field.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lynch\u2019s celebrity status has grown exponentially during retirement as he establishes himself as a product endorser and actor.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cBy partnering with the NFLPA and working with De Smith, I can share my path, pass down what I\u2019ve been through and seen, so players can see what\u2019s really out there for them and tap in to all the resources that their teams, communities and the PA have available,\u201d Lynch said. \u201cI want to put them in positions to be successful in every facet of their lives from building businesses based on their passions to of course takin\u2019 care of their mentals and stackin\u2019 their chicken.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n
