Prior to Shaun Alexander, that was Terrell Davis of the Denver Broncos who led the NFL with 2,008 rushing yards in the 1998 season and played in Super Bowl XXXIII. The only other player to accomplish this is Emmitt Smith of the Dallas Cowboys who did it three times. He led the NFL with 1,773 rushing yards in 1995 and played in Super Bowl XXX, 1,486 yards in 1993 and played in Super Bowl XXVIII, and 1,713 yards in 1992 and played in Super Bowl XXVII.
Shaun Alexander set the single-season rushing record at the University of Alabama in 1996. He rushed for 1,383 yards that season, surpassing the previous record held by Derrick L. Thomas. Alexander's impressive performance helped solidify his status as one of the top running backs in college football at the time.

Yes, in the NFL, negative rushing yards are subtracted from a running back's total rushing yards. If a running back loses yards on a carry, those negative yards are counted against their overall rushing total for that game and season. This means that a player's rushing yards reflect both positive and negative yardage from their carries.
