This past Sunday, Lynch talked to reporters, primarily by repeatedly saying “yeah,” even in response to questions that didn’t call for a yes/no answer.
So will the NFL fine Lynch for failing to comply with the spirit of the media policy? Nope.
Per a league source, Lynch hasn’t been fined for his latest shenanigans. It’s likely, however, that the league won’t tolerate that approach on a regular basis.
After Texans running back Arian Foster repeatedly said that he’s just trying to be a good teammate during a session with reporters, the NFL warned him that he could be fined if he engages in similar shenanigans in the future. So if Lynch opts for “yeah” as a standard response to reporter questions, the NFL eventually will say “yeah” when asked if Lynch has been fined.
