Pittsburgh Steelers center Cody Wallace: Menace on the field, softy off the field

Cody Wallace has had the tough job of filling in for Pro Bowl center Maurkice Pouncey in 2015. Why the veteran center has a nasty reputation on the field, but a soft side off it.

Prior to the 2015 season, Pittsburgh Steelers center Cody Wallace's most memorable moment was in 2013 when he got creative in the scrum, initiating some very, uh, "personal" contact with Miami Dolphins defensive lineman Randy Starks. He he was fined $7,875 for that maneuver, and for the next season kept a low profile as a backup to the healthy-in-2014 Maurkice Pouncey.
