NO ONE is worse than Shawn Alexander at picking up blitzes. There might be some that are just as bad, but it is nearly impossible to be worse. Do you think he was out on third down because he can't catch?

There are only so many roster spots. A lot of times, a decent young running back can't make a team because he won't play special teams. If you arent starting, you have to be able to play special teams on a 52 man roster unless you are a kicker or a QB.
