Is there anything former Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch can’t do?
He’s an NFL veteran. He’s an actor. Now, he’s a SlamBall broadcaster .
He’s expanding his wide array of talents to the broadcast booth as he provided commentary during ESPN’s airing of the SlamBall finale on Thursday night was as electric and gut-bustingly hysterical as you could imagine.
On one clip, Lynch found a phenomenal way to incorporate none other than Sonic the Hedgehog into one of his broadcast moments of one player knocking another on their rear end.
It really was absolutely glorious and the kind of signature moment you’re only going to get from Lynch.
You can check out that brilliant Sonic-inspired call and four other Lynch highlights below.

"If this was Sonic, all his coins would've been knocked out right now. You would've been hearing them things come out BADINGDINGDINGDING… SIT HIM ON HIS BACK POCKETS. SIT HIM ON HIS ASS CHEEKS"
