Seattle Seahawks

Ex-NBA star Nate Robinson was "impressive" in his tryout with the Seattle Seahawks on Monday ... this according to Nate's agent.

TMZ Sports spoke with Aaron Goodwin who confirmed 32-year-old Nate worked out for the NFL team as a defensive back ... the same position he played back at the Univ. of Washington.

"Nate's tryout with the Seahawks went well and was impressive," Goodwin says.

The two sides have not struck any sort of a deal but we're told, "[Nate] may go back later. He's going to focus on being ready for that opportunity should it occur again or an NBA opportunity."

When asked which sport Nate would prefer if offered a shot in the NFL and NBA -- Goodwin replied, "He wants to play basketball but will play football if the opportunity presents itself."

Pro football is just "not fun" for Marshawn Lynch anymore ... so says his famous rap star cousin who's 100% positive Beast Mode is NOT returning to the NFL.

Marshawn's cuz Mistah F.A.B. sat down with with "The Breakfast Club" -- when Charlamagne Tha God asked about rumors that Lynch is thinking about coming back to the league.

"He's done. It's not fun to him no more," F.A.B. said.

Long story short ... F.A.B. says Marshawn is super wealthy (saved his NFL cash like a boss) and has been spending his time building schools and affordable housing across the world.

In fact, F.A.B. says Lynch wants to mentor young players so they can get to "mogul status" too. '

Now, THIS is dedication!!!

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Alex Collins says he's so committed to the team, he'd even give up listening to Future's music ... if that's what his QB wanted.

It's a big deal ... 'cause Future's dope. Everyone knows that.

But everyone also knows Russell Wilson's got some issues with the guy (since he's engaged to Future's baby mama) ... putting Collins (and the rest of the Seahawks who like rap) in a tough spot.

Alex says it's a no-brainer -- his QB comes first.

There's more ... we also asked Alex if he would consider cutting his dreadlocks to avoid comparisons to Marshawn Lynch. But that's where the RB draws the line.

Meantime, check out his highlights ... dude's a monster.

Want your ass to feel what it's like to be a Seahawks team rep during the NFL Draft?

Well, now you can ... 'cause the league is auctioning off a "used draft chair" -- which was sat in by an official Seahawks team rep at Radio City Music Hall from 2011 to 2014!

Yes, you can own the seat that may have been sat in by the person who may have turned in the selection card to draft Russell Wilson!

The auction started at $40 ... it's already over $500!!! (Proceeds from the auction benefit multiple charities connected to the NFL).

Check yourself the next time your Lyft driver tries to bait you into talking smack about Richard Sherman -- 'cause the guy might actually be Richard Sherman!

Russell Wilson finally put a ring on it ... A HUUUUUGE RING ... proposing to Ciara with a stone the size of a baby's fist.

The Seattle Seahawks QB popped the question during a private champagne dinner off the coast of Africa on an island in the Seychelles ... paving the way for him to finally bang the pop star.

As you know, the extremely religious couple took a vow of celibacy ... promising to keep their hands off each other until they get married.

Almost there, brother ... almost.

A hoverboard company has declared war on Richard Sherman -- claiming the NFL star ordered 54 custom Seahawks colored scooters ... only to screw them over when it came time to pay up.

The gym staffer who called 911 on Kam Chancellor said the Seahawks player was "bad news" -- and had been "pounding" on the doors ... even though the gym was closed.

TMZ Sports obtained the 911 call ... in which the woman at the Redmond Athletic Club in Washington describes 5 people (3 black and 2 white) who came to the gym unannounced.

The woman said she explained that the gym was closed, but the group refused to go -- "They're trying to get in and we've told them multiple times they need to leave."

At one point, the woman says, "I don't know if they're homeless kids ... I know there used to be a lot of heroin addicts around here."

Eventually, cops came to the scene and spoke with Chancellor -- who explained his side of the story. No arrests were made and cops say Kam was a "super nice guy."

The owner of the Washington gym Kam Chancellor was scouting out Wednesday night tells TMZ Sports he has reached out to the Seahawks star to explain why his employees called police on him ... and says he still wants to make a deal.

If you haven't heard ... Chancellor says he was scouting the Redmond Athletic Club last night because he was interested in buying the place -- and went to the building with friends to check it out.

Problem was ... the gym was not open and staffers inside called police because they were concerned.

Kam tweeted, "They told the cops I was trying to rob the place because I was looking into the glass asking for help."

Many people believe the call to cops may have been racially motivated because Kam is black.

But we spoke with the owner of the gym, Ryan Neal, who tells us, "We have reviewed the situation and can assure you that race was not an issue here."

Neal says the gym has recently had attemped break-ins and the staff was told to call cops if it appeared anyone was trying to gain access to the gym while it was closed.

Neal says he has reached out to Chancellor -- and says he would love to talk business if Kam is still interested in buying the gym.

Seattle Seahawks safety Kam Chancellor says his hands are GROSS thanks to playing in that freezing cold wild card game in Minnesota ... saying the frostbite turned his fingers into "iguana skin."

Chancellor just posted video of the disgusting aftermath ... saying, "This what it looks like playing in negative 21-degree weather. Wind chill. Frostbite. Skin peeling. Iguana skin. Ewww."

He's referring to the Jan. 10 game against the Vikings -- temperature at kickoff was -6 with a windchill of -25.

Marshawn Lynch's mother tells TMZ Sports ... she believes her son still has gas left in the tank and will NOT retire ... not yet at least.

We asked Delisa Lynch about the comments Seahawks G.M. John Schneider said about her son -- that he was under the impression Lynch would retire before next season.

But Delisa -- aka Momma Lynch -- says, "I really believe we haven't seen the last of Beast Mode!!!"

She added, "My younger son [Davonte] will be coming out next year. I told [Marshawn] to wait for his brother."

FYI -- Davonte is a running back at New Mexico Highlands University ... and Momma Lynch's goal is to have BOTH of her sons playing in the NFL at the same time!

Marshawn Lynch went from Beast Mode to Party Mode after the Seahawks got bounced from the playoffs ... hitting up a Seattle nightclub late Sunday night and TMZ Sports has the video.

Multiple witnesses at the club tell us Lynch rolled in to Stage in Seattle after 1 AM wearing a big trapper hat and keeping a low profile in an effort to go incognito.

Problem for Lynch is he's super famous ... and everybody noticed.

One witness told us, "He was dancing through the crowd being followed by thirsty girls."

It's an interesting statement to party after the heartbreaking loss ... especially with reports that Lynch won't return to the Seahawks next year.

Marshawn Lynch might be the BEST MCDONALD'S CUSTOMER EVER ... 'cause he gave $500 to a Mickey D's staffer last week ... because he wanted to help the kid out.

It all went down at McDonald's in Dallas last Sunday after the Seahawks beat the Cowboys -- when Beast Mode walked into the joint and struck up a conversation with 17-year-old Terrance Downs, who was mopping at the time.

"I told him I liked his shoes -- navy blue Buscemis -- and how I wanted to buy a pair and we all started talking," Downs tells TMZ Sports.

Lynch asked him about school and what he wanted to do in life, and Downs told him he's into fashion and wants to own a boutique one day.

That's when Lynch whipped out $500 and handed it over ... telling Downs, "If you're serious about getting those shoes, here's some money to help you get 'em. My job is to continue to see you grow."

A rep for the owner of the McDonald's confirmed the story -- adding, "Marshawn left a huge positive impact on Terrance."

Russell Wilson continues to prove he's the greatest guy in the world ... auctioning off his game worn cleats from the Seahawks' victory over the 49ers last month to aid in the fight against children's cancer.

Wilson announced the donation on Twitter moments ago ... with a message that read, "Had a tough time letting go of these...auctioning my game worn cleats from our win over SF to fight childhood cancer."

The Seahawks beat the 49ers 20-3 on October 22nd ... Russell made sure to scribble in the date and score on the shoes.

The cleats are already ON FIRE on eBay ... fetching a price of nearly $900 with seven days of bidding still left to go, which tells you they're going to net a big sum when all is said and done.

A witness who was at the Seahawks facility during Tuesday's crash says Fred Jackson was revving his engine at another driver before both cars rocketed down a 1 mile stretch ... leaving no doubt they were drag racing.

We spoke with Jason Hellervik -- an autograph seeker who was waiting for players at the facility when he saw Fred's black Corvette pull up to a stop sign next to a red Dodge Charger.

"They were both stopped at the same time, they both revved their engines and they both left without stopping," says Jason, who was with his buddies at the time ... "We were like what are these idiots doing?"

Hellervik says he was with 6 other guys at the time of the crash -- who all witnessed the apparent drag racing scene -- and none of them have been contacted by police. He says if contacted, he would definitely cooperate with investigators.

Seattle Seahawks running back Fred Jackson wrecked his sports car while drag racing with someone after a team practice ... according to witnesses.

The accident went down near the team's practice facility in Renton, WA. Witnesses tell us Jackson appeared to be racing with someone in a red Dodge Charger ... down a straightaway on a public street. We're told Fred was in a black Corvette, and somehow lost control .. smashing into a large planter box and then a stop sign.

As you can see in our pics and video ... Jackson's teammates Marshawn Lynch (driving a white Jaguar F-Type convertible) and Richard Sherman were some of the first people on the scene. You can see them trying to help Jackson open the doors on his 'Vette after the accident.

Police responded, but Seahawks staffers also showed up and took Jackson back to the team facility. It's unclear if Jackson suffered any injuries. We also don't know who was driving the Charger, but in our video it's parked a short distance away from the wreck.
