Does anyone know what kind of spider this is?

I've been killing these spiders in my house for years now, they've always been larger than the normal spiders you see, but not terrifyingly large. Well I just killed one that was humongous, and I finally decided ot take a picture of it to see if anyone knew what kind it was. Unfortunately it's dead so I couldn't get a good picture of it alive, but they are close and high quality, I'm hoping someone might know what it is I've been killing dozens of over the years.

I don't know a thing about spiders and I have always assumed they were your garden variety spider you find anywhere, but deep down I've always had ab ad feeling that they were much worse, like a Brown Recluse... I'm in Mobile, AL so if you need a location that could help.







Thanks
