John Lynch stumbled over his words in his post-season press conference when asked whether rumors of his possible return to the television broadcast booth were true. It turns out there were at least talks between the 49ers general manager and NFL broadcast partner Amazon per the New York Post’s Andrew Marchand.
Lynch in his press conference said he remained committed to the 49ers organization, which matches up with Marchand’s report that the GM wanted to stay in the front office despite a potentially sizable pay raise.
“Amazon held talks with current 49ers GM and ex-TV analyst John Lynch, according to sources, but it did not lead to a deal,” Marchand reported in his column.
