NFL officials spoke to Lynch and Seahawks general manager John Schneider about the footwear, and Seattle's running back changed out of the gold cleats prior to kickoff, according to FOX Sports' Mike Garafolo.
Lynch was also wearing the shoes before the NFC Championship Game until the league reportedly threatened to eject and suspend him.
