Fittipaldo Expects Steelers To Be ‘A Little Bit More Creative’ With Watt, Highsmith, Herbig Against Houston

The Pittsburgh Steelers have three very talented edge rushers in T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith and Nick Herbig. The only problem? It’s hard to get all three of them on the field at the same time.

Against the Baltimore Ravens last week, all the three were successful. But Herbig played just 13 snaps despite being one of the best defenders in that limited role. It does make some sense, as the Steelers obviously wanted Watt to make in impact in his first game back. And he did, grabbing a huge interception on a batted pass in the third quarter.
