Oakland Raiders fans may not have seen the last of running back Marshawn Lynch in silver and black.

"We'd love to have him back," head coach Jon Gruden said Tuesday, according to Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

Gruden added he's unsure if Lynch plans to continue playing.

Lynch, a native of Oakland, spent the last two seasons with the Raiders after returning from his one-year retirement. However, his 2018 campaign was limited to just six games due to a groin injury.

Turning 33 years old before the 2019 season, Lynch has rushed for 1,267 yards and 10 touchdowns, with another 235 yards receiving over 21 games with his hometown team.
