After under-performing in his first season with the Miami Dolphins, wide receiver Mike Wallace is determined to expand his role with the team.

The Dolphins have reportedly experimented with Wallace in the backfield, but the 27-year-old would also like to return kicks in 2014.

"I might get back there for kickoff returns," Wallace told Neil Reynolds of Sky Sports. "I just want to be on the field making an impact for my team. I've always wanted to return kicks ever since I've been in the NFL.

"My coaches in Pittsburgh let me do it in the preseason but they didn't want to chance anything during the regular season given that I was playing a lot on offense. At this point of my career, I just want to get the ball in my hands and make some plays."
