The Seattle Seahawks family lost a good one this week when former running back Alex Collins died in a motorcycle accident on Sunday night. While he was never a star, Collins was a popular player both with fans and his teammates and his death at just 28 years old has hit the community hard.
Here’s how Collins’ former Seattle teammates are reacting to the news on Twitter.
