Wallace is Digest Player of Week

MIKE WALLACE
Wide Receiver

It was the fifth straight regular season game in which Mike Wallace had over 100 yards receiving, and this was no blowout loss where a team's passing statistics get padded at the end. Wallace caught eight passes for 126 yards, plus the 2-yard touchdown that accounted for the final points in the Steelers' 24-0 victory over the Seahawks at Heinz Field. It was Wallace's ninth career 100-yard receiving game.

Wallace is the Steelers Digest Player of the Week.

Also considered were Ben Roethlisberger, who completed 22-of-30 for 298 yards, with one touchdown and no interceptions for a passer rating of 115.7; Isaac Redman, who rushed for 49 yards on 10 carries and scored the team's second touchdown on a 20-yard run; Antonio Brown, who caught four passes for 67 yards and added a 41-yard punt return; Marcus Gilbert and Ramon Foster, who filled in on the offensive line for the injured Willie Colon and Chris Kemoeatu, respectively; James Harrison, who had four tackles, including two for loss, plus a sack; William Gay, who had three tackles and broke up two third-down passes; and Ike Taylor, who now has allowed only one reception all season.
