The Facts:
Alexander was released by the Redskins on Tuesday after getting only 11 carries in five games. Alexander was signed Oct. 14 after backup Ladell Betts sprained his knee in a loss to the St. Louis Rams. Betts has since returned and resumed the No. 2 role behind NFL leading rusher Clinton Portis.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Alexander was looking to make a comeback after foot and wrist injuries ruined his last two seasons and prompted the Seahawks to cut him in April. However, in his limited carries with the Redskins, the 31-year-old back never showed anything close to the form that helped him rush for 1,880 yards in his 2005 MVP season. Alexander ran for only 24 yards in 11 carries, a 2.2-yard average.
