For the third year in a row, Seattle Seahawks Marshawn Lynch retirement talks are once again in the air.

The 10-year veteran running back played only seven games in 2015 after incurring a hamstring injury and then undergoing abdominal surgery last November. With an injury-ravaged season, Lynch was limited to 111 carries and 417 yards in the regular season.

While those could be reasons for his possible retirement plans, even the Seahawks organization said that they are aware of the possible retirement plans of Lynch. However, in that same report via USA today, general manager John Schneider adds that "with Marshawn, you never really know."

The five-time Pro Bowler did hint two years ago through his teammates that if Seattle wins a Super Bowl then it would be it. That didn’t happen so perhaps his battered body could be the reason why he is contemplating retirement yet again.

However, just as his plans have yet to be made official, a tweet posted by Lynch may have saved folks the trouble of guessing what he actually plans to do.

With Lynch’s unpredictability in the air, it seems that the Seahawks and NFL.com are acknowledging the running back’s tweet as one and done.

With the main focus really on what Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning has planned, a tweet by Lynch show his cleats suspended from a telephone wire, suggesting that he could really be ending his NFL career for good.

An official statement from Lynch or the Seahawks has yet to be brought out in the open but that tweet seems to tell it all. However, remember the unpredictability angle that Lynch is famous for?

Not only that. The money he would be leaving on the table also begs to ask if he is bent on really retiring this early.

If he does walk away now, he would be leaving $11.5 million in earnings with another season for the Seahawks. That alone leaves a big question mark on why someone would walk away at this stage with so much money awaiting.

The only valid reason that one can conclude at this point is that injuries have been keeping Lynch from continuing what he does best. While he is only 29 (turning 30 this April), recovering from injuries may have taken its toll on him both physically and mentally.

It seems like a heartbreaking end to his career, considering he led the league in rushing touchdowns for two consecutive seasons via NFL.com. However, if his body is unwilling, it would be for his best interest.
