Seahawks player takes to Twitter, asking for help recovering stolen Magic card collection
Football players have hobbies like everyone else, and Seattle Seahawks outside linebacker Cassius Marsh’s hobby is collecting Magic cards.
So he was rightfully upset when the cards were stolen from him.
Marsh is trying to get his collection back by reaching out to the many Seahawks fans for help. He asked the “12s,” also known as Seahawks fans, for assistance in getting his cards back. Marsh told the Seattle Times he estimated his “Magic: The Gathering” card collection is worth between $20,000 and $25,000.
Who ever stole my magic collection from my LR4 last night, if you are 12 plz return it and I will give you two tickets to next home game.

All you 12s do me a huge favor and retweet my last tweet. Other than god family and football, my magic card collection is everything

The backpack that they were in was stolen outside of Ashton manor while my girlfriend was inside with her friends. So Seattle area

It seems like the cards were stolen out of his car (“LR4” = Land Rover 4). Seahawks teammate Frank Clark took up the fight on Twitter too.
My boy @KingCash_7191 got some of his most prized possessions stolen from his Black LR4 in DT Seattle. If you got any info, let us know!

If it seems unusual that a 24-year-old who is in his third NFL season would be so into Shivan Dragon and the other Magic cards in the long-time game, Marsh had an answer for that too.
@jvsmitty22 I'm grown enough not to be ashamed of loving a game. I get paid to play a game I love. A grown man is the same no matter what

Hopefully for Marsh, his Twitter followers help him crack the case.
