"Remembering Alex Collins: A Tale of Tenacity, Tragedy, and Triumph"


The Seahawks fraternity is enveloped in lamentation, ensnared by the dolorous news of Alex Collins' demise, a revered comrade and cherished icon during his dual tenures with the assembly.


At the age of 28, Collins succumbed on the somber threshold of Monday, the aftermath of a calamitous rendezvous with a motorcycle.


"With hearts weighed down by sorrow, we unveil the grievous tidings of the celestial ascension of our beloved scion, Alex Collins," intoned Collins' kin in a poignant missive, both familial and amicable, joined in the adulation of Alex. He bequeathed to them his indomitable fervor, unyielding resolve, and a persona that transcends mortal dimensions. Our supplication beseeches your reveries and invocations on behalf of our lineage, as we traverse this dolorous passage. In our quest for solace, we implore solitude. As the design for his final rites unfurls, we shall provide befitting updates."


"The Seahawks brotherhood, ensconced in the affections of the 12th Man, stands ensconced in woe at the news of Alex's ethereal voyage," mourned Seahawks' preeminent steward, the Executive Vice President and general manager, John Schneider. "Alex's effervescent smile and his evocative river dance shall eternally elude our realm. His absence creates a lacuna, deeply felt within the tapestry of our establishment. His aura could illuminate the shadows, and his memory shall grace our sanctuary. He reveled in existence and met its challenges upon the gridiron. He remains inscribed as one of the most prolific rushing artisans in the annals of the SEC chronicle. Our heartfelt consolations extend to his immediate lineage, the venerable Gatewood household, and his procurator Kelli Masters. Vale, Alex, thou art immortalized. On behalf of Jody Allen, Pete Carroll, Chuck Arnold, Chad Morton, and the entire pantheon of the Seahawks' communion, may your repose be tranquil."


Collins, a conscript of the Seahawks' retinue in 2016, selected in the fifth round of the draft, embarked on a sojourn to Baltimore, only to be reenlisted by the azure empyrean in 2020 and 2021. His return ignited empyreal praises from fellow combatants and mentors alike, an elixir for the rushing campaign's ardor. "His ethos is an effulgent beacon that graces our enclave," declaimed Seahawks' mentor, Pete Carroll, in the annals of 2021. "He progresses splendidly, kindling the flames of my enthusiasm."


Collins, effulgent in his presence, endeared himself to the Seattle cohort, a paragon of ebullience, his visage radiant and his spirit vivacious. His buoyant mien, reminiscent of an Irish reel, and his jubilant deportment, ingrained him in the hearts of the aficionados. This, along with his Gaelic terpsichorean touchdown salute, an homage to his antecedent pursuit, kindled under the aegis of a nascent NFL vocation, labor to ameliorate his pedal dexterity, cemented his moniker as a beloved stalwart.


Collins, a scion hailing from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, commenced his academic odyssey at Arkansas, subsequent to an illustrious tenure at South Plantation High School. Carroll, in his veneration of Collins, extolled his eminence as one amongst the trinity of SEC protagonists, whose feats surpassed the millennium milestone in the art of terrestrial propulsion, an unparalleled trichotomy of yardage attainment across three successive seasons
