Mike Wallace (American football)

Mike Wallace (born August 1, 1986) is a former American football wide receiver. He played college football at Ole Miss, and was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the third round of the 2009 NFL Draft.

Wallace was known for his exceptional speed and deep-threat ability, which earned him the nickname "The Flash". He quickly established himself as a key part of the Steelers' offense, contributing to their Super Bowl XLIII victory over the Arizona Cardinals in his rookie season.

Following four seasons with the Steelers, Wallace signed with the Miami Dolphins in 2013. He later played for the Minnesota Vikings, Baltimore Ravens, and Philadelphia Eagles before retiring from the NFL after the 2017 season due to a leg injury sustained during training camp with the Eagles. Throughout his NFL career, Wallace amassed over 5,700 receiving yards and scored 40 touchdowns.
