For the second straight preseason, second-year Pittsburgh Steelers’ outside linebacker Nick Herbig looked rather remarkable getting after quarterbacks consistently.

He capped off another great preseason with a sparkling performance against the Detroit Lions Saturday inside Ford Field, recording two sacks, a forced fumble and one quarterback hit, giving him 3.
