Pittsburgh Steelers CB Levi Wallace has been criticized for his play the last couple of weeks, having looked outmatched against the Cleveland Browns in a tough performance against WR Amari Cooper and taking his lumps on Sunday night against All-Pro WR Davante Adams.
However, Wallace did have a notable positive impact on the game as well on Sunday night, having a couple key pass deflections as well as two interceptions, including one at the end of the game that sealed the Steelers’ victory on the road in Las Vegas.
Teammate CB Patrick Peterson spoke about Wallace’s game-winning interception with former Steelers CB Bryant McFadden on the All Things Covered podcast Tuesday, stating that Raiders QB Jimmy Garoppolo gave Wallace an early Christmas present with the game on the line.
