Ryan Tannehill is still the quarterback and a handful of other players remain in place, but the decision makers on the sideline and the front office have changed completely since wide receiver Mike Wallace last played for the Dolphins in 2014.

That might not be the case had the team’s decision to sign Wallace before the 2013 season worked out in their favor. Wallace signed a five-year, $60 million deal with the team as a free agent and he caught 140 passes and 15 touchdowns over two rocky seasons that ended with Wallace in a dispute with then-coach Joe Philbin about whether he was benched in the final game of the 2014 season.

Wallace was traded to the Vikings last year and both sides came out of the two-year Miami stay looking worse for the wear. Wallace didn’t do much in Minnesota, but has rebounded with the Ravens this year and gets a chance to play the Dolphins for the first time since leaving in Baltimore this Sunday. He says he enters the game with no hard feelings for the Dolphins.

“I have no regrets,” Wallace said, via the Miami Herald. “They gave me a lot of money in two years. I have no grudge, no nothing against those guys. It’s all love on my end. My life is a lot better because of those guys.”

Things have worked out for Wallace and they have finally been working out for the Dolphins this year as well. A win in Baltimore would make it seven in a row and put them a step closer to the playoffs, which represents a major step away from the direction the team was headed in when Wallace was last in town.
