Steelers' Nick Herbig: Loses out to Highsmith
Herbig recorded two tackles (one solo) in Thursday's 33-31 loss to the Bengals.
Herbig was a pass-rushing force for the Steelers when Alex Highsmith was sidelined, and he appeared to carry over some of his expanded role in Week 6 even with Highsmith back. However, the split in playing time between the duo shifted significantly Thursday night, with Herbig logging a season-low 29 defensive snaps. Herbig is more of a pass-rush specialist than Highsmith, so he could continue to see limited snaps moving forward.

Steelers' Nick Herbig: Secures 2.0 sacks Sunday
Herbig finished Sunday's 23-9 win over the Browns with two tackles, both of which were sacks, and a defensed pass.
Each of Herbig's sacks came in the fourth quarter. He brought down Dillon Gabriel for an 11-yard loss after Cleveland had driven to the Steelers' three-yard line, which limited the Browns to a field goal. Herbig then got to Gabriel again on Cleveland's next drive, which ended on downs. Herbig is up to 4.5 sacks on the campaign, just one fewer than the career-high 5.5 sacks he tallied over 13 regular-season games last year.

Steelers' Nick Herbig: Picks up 1.5 sacks in win
Herbig recorded five tackles (three solo), including 1.5 sacks, in the Steelers' win over the Vikings on Sunday.
Herbig missed the Week 1 regular-season opener with a hamstring injury but has wreaked havoc since debuting in Week 2, recording 10 tackles (six solo), including 2.5 sacks and four TFLs, eight QB hits and one pass breakup, including one interception, on 83 percent of the defensive snaps over the last three weeks.

Steelers' Nick Herbig: Past hamstring issue
Herbig (hamstring) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Herbig was not cleared to play against the Jets in Week 1 due to a hamstring injury he suffered during the preseason. His full practice participation Thursday indicates that he has recovered from the injury and is on track to suit up against the Seahawks on Sunday. Herbig saw his playing time fluctuate during the 2024 regular season and finished with 22 tackles (13 solo), including 5.5 sacks, four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries across 13 games.

Steelers' Nick Herbig: Not suiting up Week 1
Herbig (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against Seattle, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Herbig suffered a hamstring injury Aug. 16 in a preseason game and hasn't been able to fully recover. He did participate in practice in a limited fashion this week but isn't quite ready for game action. Herbig's absence Sunday should make more rotational linebacker snaps available for Jack Sawyer.

Steelers' Nick Herbig: Could play Sunday
Herbig (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jets, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
The third-year linebacker from Wisconsin was limited all week in practice due to a hamstring injury sustained in mid-August. Herbig has been productive throughout his two years in Pittsburgh, totaling 49 total tackles, including 8.5 sacks, and six forced fumbles across 30 regular-season contests. If he's unable to go in Week 1, Jack Sawyer will likely play as the Steelers' top rotational outside linebacker.

Steelers' Nick Herbig: Still nursing hamstring injury
Herbig (hamstring) remains sidelined at practice Monday, Alan Saunders of Steelers Now reports.
Herbig was injured in the Steelers' second preseason game and is looking questionable for Pittsburgh's Week 1 opener against the Jets on Sept. 7. If Herbig is unable to gain clearance against New York, Alex Highsmith would be in for elevated snaps opposite T.J. Watt.
