Marshawn Lynch spent five minutes answering questions from the media on Tuesday.

"I'm here so I won't get fined," said Lynch after every question.

Lynch famously does not enjoy speaking to the media and has been fined in the past for refusing to comply with NFL rules.

“I don’t think he’s being misunderstood,” Pete Carroll said. “I think people are starting to learn about who he is and what he’s all about. He’s a treasure.”

Carroll works hard in celebrating the uniqueness of the personalities on his team.

“I’ll say this, and let me say it again,” Carroll said Monday, when asked how he handles Lynch. “We still celebrate the uniqueness of our players. We celebrate the way that they see the world as they fit in with our football team.”
