I think he needed to pray to be a better running back.

His spectacular 2005 season as the MVP seemed like a century ago after the last horrible two years. I like the guy and think he's got a good heart and soul. Unfortunately he was an anchor around the Seahawks neck and had to go.

We received the news from the Seahawks' front office today that I have been released. While it really isn't a surprise, this news marks a major transition in my life. I started my NFL career in Seattle and hoped I could remain with the team through the rest of my days as a player. That said, things change.

I will be playing for another NFL team this fall, and doing everything I can to contribute. I am healthy, energized and looking forward to beginning the next chapter of my NFL career.

I want to thank the Seahawks and Coach Holmgren for all they have done for me and my family over the years. I have nothing but respect and affection for the Seahawks staff, my teammates and the organization. I wish them the best.

I especially want to thank the Seahawks fans. You made me feel proud every time I stepped on the field as a Seahawk. I look forward to hopefully returning to Qwest Field one day to play against the Seahawks, and the daunting task of facing the 12th Man --Seahawks fans are among the best.

Finally, Valerie and I want everyone to know that Seattle is home for us, and it will remain so no matter where I play next. We have made far too many wonderful friends to say goodbye. My family will remain in the Seattle area, and when my days in the NFL do eventually come to an end, I plan to retire here. Our hearts are woven into the fabric of this community, we are blessed to be part of it, and we enjoy contributing to it in every way we can.

Thank you, Seattle. You have become a part of me and you will forever remain in my heart.

Sorry to see him go on a personal level. I truley think he was one of the good guys in the NFL. So many of these guys sign multi-million dollar contracts and still act like a bunch of frickin' criminals. But the NFL is about performance not character. Good luck to Shaun wherever he may end up (as long as it's not a NFC west team).

He no longer lived up to his job description or his pay grade. Adios. Thanks for the memories.

It's best for him and the Seahawks to part ways.

I just hope he don't go elsewhere and tear it up.....

That was what got me, his injury 2 years ago when he announced to the media he was healed and would play the next week after praying with his people...The media went to the coaching/medical staff to which they  It was many more weeks before his attempted come back.
