Because it is Marshawn Lynch, I think we need to wait before rushing to judgment.
You never know with these cops if things are what they say they are in the police report.
Here is what TMZ Sports knows about the arrest.
Ex-NFL star running back Marshawn Lynch was arrested in Las Vegas on Tuesday … after cops claim he was driving under the influence.

Lynch has not commented on the arrest.
The last we heard from Marshawn he was doing this.
Yes, you read the headline right. Amazon is looking at former NFL running back Marshawn Lynch to be a part of their Thursday Night Football broadcast teams as a reporter and analyst.
Lynch would be a part of a more relaxed studio-type show where he would conduct interviews with players and utilize his sense of humor in a report on the city where the games are taking place.
According to Andrew Marchand of the New York Post, Amazon is all in on TNF, with the tech giant has hired Fred Gaudelli, the executive producer for NBC’s Sunday Night Football, away from the company and has reportedly had talks about bringing in Al Micheals for play-by-play duties.
It doesn’t look like that is going to happen, but we will keep you informed about Lynch’s arrest.
