Lynch is known for his love for Skittles and running over defenders when he has the ball in his hands. But his pre-game superstition throughout his career involved taking a swig of some Hennessy before strapping his helmet on.
Of course, the NFL isn't going to be overly excited to hear that Lynch was consuming alcohol prior to games. However, Lynch is no longer in the league and can't face any punishment for his hilarious admission.
Throughout his career, Lynch dealt punishment to defenders, rushing for 10,413 yards and 85 rushing touchdowns in his career. While he began his career with the Buffalo Bills, he became a national sensation when he joined the Seahawks in 2010.
He would proceed to spend seven seasons in Seattle, helping them win a Super Bowl in 2013. Ever since then, he's been a beloved sports figure across the world and he's been known to be a caring character off of the field.
It would be must-watch television to have Lynch and Manning have their own show together, discussing events and personal anecdotes of their careers in the NFL. At the least, we got a sneak peek into what Lynch used to do before he ran over incoming tacklers.
