There is no doubt Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Mike Wallace is one of the fastest pass catchers in the NFL. This is why he thrived when playing with the Pittsburgh Steelers, averaging 17.5 yards per reception over the course of his first four seasons. Wallace’s stats earned him a major paycheck when he signed on with the Miami Dolphins in 2013. However, during his two seasons playing in Miami, Wallace’s yards per catch dropped to 12.2.
A combination of lackluster production, a negative attitude and his inflated salary led Wallace to be traded to the Vikings back in March.
