The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... Wallace remains in the dark about whether the Dolphins plan to keep him, but the team's highest-paid player (for now) has reason to believe that he will be back in Miami in 2015.

Diehards Line:That's according to his father, Burnell, who told the Herald that the uncertainty has been "tough" for his son. "Right now, he's been talking to them," Burnell Wallace said late Wednesday morning. "He thinks he's going to stay there. He doesn't have a problem staying. [But] they really don't know. I really can't give you a definitive answer." According to Herald staffer Adam Beasley, Wallace said his expects his son to know one way or the other next week -- which makes sense. The Dolphins must pay Wallace a $3 million bonus if he is on the roster on March 14. Beasley explained the holdup could be twofold: No. 1: There might still be a difference of opinion within the organization about whether the Dolphins should keep Wallace, who is set to earn $9.9 million this season. And No. 2: Wallace might become a cap casualty if the team needs space to land star defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh. Beasley added the word in league circles last week was that GM Dennis Hickey was sympathetic to keeping Wallace, but Joe Philbin was leaning toward wanting him gone. Wallace, he does have several well-placed allies within the organization. Team leaders Mike Pouncey and Branden Albert have both been on record saying that they want Wallace to remain with the Dolphins. And this week, Ryan Tannehill said the same. ... Stay tuned. Resolution, one way or the other, is coming soon.
