Is Nick Herbig forcing the Steelers to consider starting him?
Even though the Steelers love Alex Highsmith, Nick Herbig has to be making them think long and hard about snaps. The fact is, when Herbig is on the field, there is a good chance of a splash defensive play. In three games this season, he already has 2.5 sacks, a forced fumble, and an interception. But this is just the continuation of a pattern we have seen from him throughout his three-year career in reserve.
The Steelers selected Nick Herbig in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft.
