Marshawn Lynch is a man who has never changed, and we all love him for it.
BetMGM, a leading sports betting and digital gaming company, announced today the signing of the former NFL running back as a brand ambassador. The Super Bowl champion will be featured in BetMGM’s upcoming marketing campaigns, promotions and fan events.
While live on ‘First Take’ Wednesday, Lynch gave his take on the Aaron Rodgers, Packers situation. He seemingly forgot he was on live TV as he threw out a curse word.
Lynch, commonly referred to as “Beast Mode” for his powerful, highlight-reel running style, played 12 seasons in the NFL for the Buffalo Bills, Seattle Seahawks and Oakland Raiders.
“Being part of the BetMGM family is dope and an honor. They’re the leaders in online gaming so I’m excited to learn about the industry from the best and find ways where I can have an impact,” said Lynch. “Plus, with ambassadors like Barry, Gretzky and Jalen, I think da’ kid is in good company, ya know what I mean?”
He earned four consecutive Pro Bowl appearances, one first-team All-Pro selection, and twice led the league in rushing touchdowns. He also helped the Seahawks win its first Super Bowl.
