Report: Steelers, Wallace talks gain momentum
Mike Wallace - WR - Pittsburgh Steelers
July 19, 2012 - 4:05 PM ET

CBS Sports' Jason LaCanfora confirms the Steelers "continue to make headway" in long-term contract talks with restricted free agent Mike Wallace.

GM Kevin Colbert has made it clear the organization wants to build around the dangerous vertical threat, and LaCanfora reports Wallace's camp is "motivated" to stay in Pittsburgh as well. Although there's no real deadline to finalize the deal, both sides are working to get Wallace into training camp to pick up snaps in Todd Haley's offense after missing out on offseason practices.
