Mike Tomlin indicates Mike Wallace is no longer a one-trick pony

Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin will see wide receiver Mike Wallace on the opposing sideline for the second time on Sunday. Based on the film he's watched, it looks like a different Wallace to him.

During the early part of Wallace's career in Pittsburgh, Tomlin referred to him as a "one-trick pony" because the wide receiver was purely a deep threat. On Tuesday, Tomlin indicated that Wallace's game has expanded.

"You see him doing normal Mike Wallace things, in terms of stretching and getting behind the defense, but you are also seeing him doing some new things, some things that I haven’t seen a lot of from Mike," Tomlin told Pittsburgh reporters at his news conference.
