In a preseason marked by a long list of healthy scratches, Steelers OLB Nick Herbig suited up for the second preseason game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He logged only three snaps before he was sidelined for the night with a hamstring injury.
Herbig got off to a great start. On his first defensive play, a 3rd and 15, Herbig had Tampa Bay quarterback Teddy Bridgewater on the run. A seven yard pass was not enough for a first down and Tampa Bay had to punt.
Herbig returned to the field for two more plays in the next series.
