Ryan Tannehill excited to throw to Mike Wallace

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill has admitted that he is looking forward to linking up with wide receiver Mike Wallace in the 2013 season.

Tannehill said that Wallace, who arrived at the club in March, will become a big target for the Dolphins offence due to his pace and ability to find space.

"When you have a guy with that type of speed, it is exciting to throw the ball downfield," the Kansas City Star quotes Tannehill as saying.

"It's not going to be five touchdowns a game; I think that's what everyone kind of seems to be hinting at. But we are going to get him the ball.

"He's going to get open short and deep. There is no need to panic or push to try to force him the ball. It is going to happen."

Wallace said recently that he wants to become the best player in the NFL.
