The Buffalo News:

The aborted meeting Monday afternoon between Marshawn Lynch’s attorney and Erie County prosecutors virtually doomed any hopes for a quick resolution of the Bills running back’s criminal case.

But that doesn’t mean it increased the chances of Lynch going to jail.

While every case is different, jail time for a first-time defendant charged with leaving the scene of an injury accident would be “quite unusual,” Erie County District Attorney Frank J. Clark said Monday.

That doesn’t mean he won’t be heading to Goodell’s doghouse, of course. This situation is obviously still pretty fluid and could result in anything from zero effect on Lynch’s fantasy value to a multi-game suspension.
