Steelers EDGE Nick Herbig Inactive Against Jets

Pittsburgh Steelers EDGE Nick Herbig is inactive for Sunday’s game against the New York Jets. Ending the week questionable due to a hamstring injury, Herbig won’t dress to open up the season. It’s a loss to the Steelers’ depth as the defense looks to minimize the Jets’ run-focused offense and containment of quarterback Justin Fields.

Herbig was officially named among the Steelers’ group of inactives for today’s game.
