Miami Dolphins trying to trade Mike Wallace

By Alex Butler

MIAMI, Feb. 25 (UPI) -- The Miami Dolphins have put wide receiver Mike Wallace on the trading block, according to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport.

Wallace, 28, voluntarily sat out of the Dolphins December loss to the New York Jets in week 17 after a conflict with coaches.

Wallace is set to make $9.85 million next season in a five-year, $60 million contract through 2017. Wallace would count as $12.1 million against the Dolphins salary cap this season.

Baltimore Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti recently bashed the Dolphins front office and Wallace when discussing free agency prizes.

Wallace had 67 receptions for 862 yards and 10 touchdowns last season. He hasn't eclipsed 1,000 receiving yards since 2011 with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Any team that trades for Wallace without restructuring his contract would owe him $32.8 million over the next three seasons, according to the Miami Herald.
