Pittsburgh Steelers OLB Nick Herbig once again stepped up for the team with a strip sack of QB Joe Burrow that led to a defensive touchdown in Pittsburgh’s 44-38 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Herbig now has 4.5 sacks this season and four forced fumbles, and while he isn’t built like a traditional 3-4 outside linebacker, Herbig has been an impact player since the Steelers selected him in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft. After the game, OLB T.J. Watt, who had two sacks of his own including a strip-sack, praised Herbig and dismissed the flak he catches for his size.
