Why was Mike Wallace sidelined? Celebrating historic TD too much

No one on the Pittsburgh Steelers could run down wide receiver Mike Wallace on his 95-yard touchdown, which was the longest play from scrimmage in the Baltimore Ravens' regular-season history.

But not eating before the game quickly caught up to Wallace.

He didn't play for the rest of the first half because he didn't feel well. After becoming the first player in NFL history to produce a 95-yard touchdown for two different teams, Wallace was surrounded by trainers and doctors before heading to the locker room.

Wallace later explained he was not sidelined by an injury but by the effects of not having breakfast that morning.
