The word is that the Hawks will release Alexander either later tonight or tomorrow. What do you guys think?

Runner only have so many carries in their legs... I think he is done as a feature back...maybe he could be a backup somewhere.

Re: Shaun Alexander Released

Very smart move, with Shaun, the Seahawks have three average running backs with big contracts, now they're down two average running backs with big contracts.

Alexander is far past his prime.

Re: Shaun Alexander Released

It's amazing how fast the drop has been for Alexander. A shame but I guess it's the nature of the beast.

I hope he takes his health into consideration as far as his future in the NFL.

Re: Shaun Alexander Released

how quickly one minute your a madden coverboy and the next your getting released, I think he still capable of being an excellent backup choice somewhere..

Re: Shaun Alexander Released

even during his mvp season i did not like him as u can see over the last three years it was our O-LINE he is a liability when a D-fense lines up they kno alexander cant block or catch so y pay attention to him if i was a D cordinator i would blitz his side every time hopefully we'll be able to expose him sometime this season on the other side of the ball
