Shaun Alexander bobbled a short pass from Matt Hasselbeck in practice — and it was the best thing Mike Holmgren saw all day. “I’m glad that happened,” the Seahawks coach yelled across the field Friday to his star running back. Holmgren was happy Alexander was getting to test the usefulness of the soft, padded cast he was wearing over his left wrist, halfway up his forearm.
