Part of the conversation was Zimmer’s lamentation that Wallace didn’t have as many connections in 2015 as anyone envisioned last March when Minnesota executed a trade with Miami for the veteran receiver.
Wallace finished with 39 catches for 473 yards (12.1) and two of the team’s 14 receiving touchdowns. Wallace ranked third in all categories for the Vikings behind rookie Stefon Diggs (52 for 720 yards and four touchdowns) and tight end Kyle Rudolph (49 for 495 and five touchdowns).
“I was disappointed and really — I’m disappointed more so that it wasn’t the season that he wanted or we wanted,” Zimmer said.
