As the Mariners struggle to please fans on trade deadline day (Chris Denorfia, anyone?), the Seahawks have managed to take the biggest sports headline in Seattle for the day.
Adam Schefter of ESPN came through with the latest on the Marshawn Lynch situation:
Marshawn Lynch is planning to end his holdout and is expected to report to Seattle’s training camp in next 24 hours, via @caplannfl and me.

Here are the important takeaways: Beast Mode will be back in action by tomorrow, effectively ending his hold out at eight days. The Seahawks didn’t give in to Lynch’s demands, but the star running back will receive something from them:
Marshawn Lynch will not receive new deal and added money he sought but Seattle expected to add some financial concessions to his contract.

So, Seahawks fans, you can rejoice and begin eating Skittles with pleasure once again.
