Coming out of the bye week ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the Washington Commanders, the Pittsburgh Steelers appear set to get healthier on both sides of the ball.
There is optimism that they’ll get a significant boost defensively, particularly in the form of second-year outside linebacker Nick Herbig.
Herbig has missed the last three games with a hamstring injury, putting the Steelers at a significant disadvantage from a depth standpoint at the outside linebacker position. But now, ahead of the matchup with the Commanders, chances appear good that Herbig — coming off the bye week — will make his return to the Steelers’ lineup.
