In this Dec. 14, 2006 file photo, Seattle Seahawks' Shaun Alexander sits on the bench in the final moments against the San Francisco 49ers in a football game in Seattle. Just 26 months after Alexander signed a $62 million contract, Seahawks president Tim Ruskell said Tuesday April 22, 2008, the team released Alexander unconditionally hours after the running back passed a physical. It's been a rapid fall for the 30-year-old Alexander. When he signed that mammoth deal, he was coming off an MVP season in 2005 and a Super Bowl appearance. Now he's looking for work, coming off of two unimpressive and injury filled seasons.

Just a few years removed from an MVP season and also helping lead the way to a berth in the Super Bowl, the Seattle Seahawks are moving on without Shaun Alexander.
