The report that Lynch was considering retirement came from NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport, who tweeted that it was a source’s opinion that Lynch would consider walking away from the NFL.

But at the end of the day, no one has confirmed that Lynch is 100 percent serious he will retire right now.

He mentioned the idea to teammates last season, but that, as far as we know, was the extent of that conversation.

Let’s wait and see what Lynch has to say in the next few weeks.

Though of course, if we know anything about Lynch, that probably won’t be very much at all.
