Raiders RB Marshawn Lynch now has his own Skittles pack
Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch is known for his love for Skittles, on and off the field. Now, Skittles is repaying the favor.
Skittles announced Thursday morning that Lynch will get his own custom packaging. Promotion shows silver and black packaging with Lynch’s face in the right-hand corner.
