The Pittsburgh Steelers haven’t been at full strength in their outside linebacker room very much this season, but Nick Herbig was healthy and started in place of Alex Highsmith on Sunday versus the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Bengals went shopping for some offensive line help ahead of the 2023 season when they brought in Orlando “Zeus” Brown Jr. It is Mike Tomlin’s belief that Alex Highsmith had something to do with that decision.

“There’s some dudes in Cincinnati sitting in their room to combat the talents of some of you people,” Tomlin said via HBO’s Hard Knocks.
