Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll apparently did his homework before drafting Alex Collins in the fifth round of the NFL Draft last month.
Carroll was spotted doing an Irish dance for Collins on Sunday during the Seahawks' rookie mini-camp in Renton, Washington.

Collins was featured by Sports Illustrated prior to the draft for taking Irish dance classes in Florida. In the feature, Collins said the dance helps with his footwork.
Collins is one of three rookie running backs looking to replace Marshawn Lynch on the Seahawks' roster. He signed a four-year contract worth $2.5 million last week.
