Count seven-year receiver Mike Wallace among those who were impressed by the debut of rookie Stefon Diggs in Denver.
Chris Tomasson of the Pioneer Press writes that Wallace already sees something special in the future for the Minnesota rookie wide receiver.
“He could be better than me,” Wallace told Tomasson. “He’s young. When I came in (with Pittsburgh in 2009), I was playing well as a young guy, but I had one assignment: Beat them deep. Diggs is already running the full-route treatment from Day One.”
After being inactive for the Vikings’ first three games, Diggs appeared in his first regular-season game in Sunday’s 23-20 loss at Denver.
