Background
Shaun Edward Alexander (born August 30, 1977 in Florence, Kentucky) is an American football running back in the National Football League who is currently a free agent. From 2001 until 2007, he was the featured running back for the Seattle Seahawks. He set several records and was named the league's most valuable player during his team's 2005 Super Bowl season. He parlayed that stellar performance into a very lucrative long-term contract, but injuries limited his productivity in the 2006 and 2007 seasons, causing the Seahawks to release him in the spring of 2008. Other teams have not hurried to sign Alexander, due to his recent history of injuries, the perception that he is "soft" (i.e., that he does not run aggressively), and the fact that several more affordable free agent running backs presently crowd the market.
