Wallace (hamstring) is expected to play in Denver's preseason finale against Arizona on Sunday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. A hamstring injury kept Wallace out of Denver's first two exhibition contests, but he was able to return to practice this week and appears set to get some reps in the preseason finale. After starting nine of the 16 regular-season contests in which he appeared with Pittsburgh last year, Wallace joined Denver as a free agent in the offseason. He's competing with Damarri Mathis and Riley Moss for a starting role at cornerback opposite Patrick Surtain.
Wallace suffered a hamstring injury at Saturday's practice, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports. Head coach Sean Payton is unsure regarding the severity of Wallace's injury.

Wallace is in line to sign with the Broncos, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports. The looming addition of Wallace, who turns 29 in June, would bolster the Broncos' depth at cornerback ahead of this week's NFL Draft. During the 2023 campaign, Wallace recorded 38 tackles and two picks in 16 regular-season games for the Steelers, and in his new locale the Alabama product could compete for a starting role opposite Patrick Surtain.
