The Facts:
We're hearing multiple rumblings from our connections at the Scouting Combine that the Seahawks could be cutting Alexander soon. A media source told us moments ago that the move could come "in the next couple of days."

As PFT editor Mike Florio notes, it would be the last step in a dramatic fall from grace for running back the NFL's MVP in 2005. Once Alexander got rewarded with a big contract in 2006, his performance began to dip. In fact, Alexander, who rushed for 1,880 yards and 27 rushing touchdowns in '05, has averaged only 70 yards per game the past two years and saw his yards-per-carry fall to a career low (3.5) in 2007 after averaging over five yards per carry two seasons ago. ... Alexander is under contract through 2013, with total remaining non-guaranteed base salaries of $43.1625 million. ... Stay tuned. This one's still in the rumor stage, but local observers have been suggesting the same since last month. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out.
