Steelers WR Mike Wallace Won’t Play In Preseason If He Reports

PLAYERS: Mike Wallace,  Ben Roethlisberger,  Todd Haley
TEAMS: Pittsburgh Steelers,  Kansas City Chiefs

Mike Wallace’s preseason is effectively over even before it started. If the holdout wide receiver reports to the Steelers and signs his $2.742 million tender Sunday or Monday, as his teammates believe he will, he still must sit out three days under the NFL labor agreement. That would keep him out of the final preseason game Aug. 30 against Carolina and prevent him from practicing until Labor Day weekend. According to quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, Wallace already has an understanding of Todd Haley’s new offense, despite not being with the team since last season. “I talked to him today. He’s excited. We’re excited,” Roethlisberger said Wednesday. “He’s been working, and he’s been working not just on his conditioning and strength but working through the offense. If he’s been putting the work in he’s telling me he’s been doing, he’ll be fine.”
