It's number 14 for No. 37.
Former Seattle Seahawks legend Shaun Alexander announced on the "Up & Adams" show today that he and his wife are expecting their 14th child.
"We're just now starting to tell people but No. 14 is in the belly," he said. "We have had 10 girls, three boys. My oldest son, the fourth overall, is a sophomore in high school."
The 2005 NFL MVP said they're just now breaking the news today.

Alexander spent eight of his nine years in the NFL with the Seahawks. He still holds the franchise records for career rushes (2,176), rushing yards (9,429) and rushing touchdowns (100). He led the NFL in scrimmage touchdowns twice in 2004 and 2005.
Alexander has never been a finalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame but is eligible again for the 2026 class. He ranks 37th all-time in rushing yards and 23rd in career yards per game but tied for ninth in rushing touchdowns, something that will likely get him consideration.
The Seahawks inducted him into their Ring of Honor on Oct. 16, 2022.
