Shaun Alexander is a former professional football player who made a significant impact in the NFL, primarily as a running back for the Seattle Seahawks. Born on August 30, 1977, Alexander first gained national attention during his college career at the University of Alabama, where he earned first-team All-American honors in 1999. His impressive performance at Alabama led to his selection by the Seattle Seahawks as the 19th overall pick in the 2000 NFL Draft. Alexander quickly became a key player for the Seahawks, known for his powerful running style and ability to find the end zone.

During his time with the Seahawks, Alexander set numerous franchise and NFL records, solidifying his place as one of the top running backs of his era. His most notable season came in 2005 when he was named the NFL's Most Valuable Player (MVP) after rushing for 1,880 yards and scoring 27 touchdowns, leading the Seahawks to their first Super Bowl appearance. Alexander's 27 rushing touchdowns in a single season set an NFL record at the time, and he became the first player in Seahawks history to win the MVP award. His contributions to the team were instrumental in establishing Seattle as a dominant force in the NFL during the mid-2000s.

In addition to his MVP season, Alexander was named to the NFL's 2000s All-Decade Team, further cementing his legacy as one of the best running backs of his generation. He finished his career with 100 rushing touchdowns, ranking him eighth all-time in NFL history at the time of his retirement. Alexander's ability to consistently find the end zone and his durability as a workhorse back made him a fan favorite and a respected figure in the league. After his time with the Seahawks, Alexander briefly played for the Washington Redskins before retiring from professional football.

Shaun Alexander's impact on the game extended beyond the field, as he became the first athlete to be featured on the cover of both the NCAA Football and Madden NFL video game series. His influence on the sport and his contributions to the Seahawks' success have earned him a lasting legacy in the football world. In 2011, Alexander was inducted into the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame, recognizing his outstanding achievements both in college and the NFL.
