The only player to win MVP honors in franchise history and a member of the Seahawks Ring of Honor, Alexander was a dominant force for Mike Holmgren’s offenses in the 2000s. A first-round pick in the 2000 draft, Alexander went on to rewrite the franchise record books, rushing for 9,429 yards while scoring 112 total touchdowns in eight seasons with the Seahawks, earning first-team AP All-Pro honors to go along with his MVP award in 2005, as well as three Pro-Bowl selections.  

From 2001-2005, Alexander averaged 1,500.8 rushing yards and 19.6 total touchdowns per season over a five-year span. In 2005, Alexander rushed for 1,880 yards and scored a then-NFL record 28 total touchdowns on his way to league MVP honors while the Seahawks went 13-3 and reached the Super Bowl for the first time in franchise history.
