NEW YORK (AP) - Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch fulfilled all his media obligations during Super Bowl week and will not be fined.

NFL spokesman Michael Signora said in a statement that Lynch fulfilled the obligation to attend all media sessions prior to Seattle's 28-24 loss to New England. Lynch never appeared for more than five minutes at any of the three availabilities, saying at media day, "I'm just here so I won't get fined."

In addition, Signora said Lynch will not be fined for the hat he wore all three days. Lynch wore a hat for his "Beast Mode" clothing brand. The hat was made by and given to him by an NFL licensee, New Era, and was in team colors, Signora said.
