Raiders' Marshawn Lynch: Being held out of OTAs

Lynch is being held out of OTAs by the Raiders' coaching staff, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.

Analysis:

Lynch isn't dealing with any injuries or health concerns, but the Raiders are keeping the 31-year-old on the sidelines during OTAs as he continues to learn a new offensive system. He may not suit up for practice until training camp, but for now, seventh-round pick Elijah Hood figures to see additional reps at running back as Lynch is eased back in after a lengthy layoff from the NFL.
