PITTSBURGH -- As kicker Chris Boswell's leg evened the Pittsburgh Steelers with the Los Angeles Chargers midway through the third quarter Sunday, quarterback Justin Herbert prepared to respond with a scoring drive of his own. It took only two plays for Steelers linebacker Nick Herbig to derail those plans.
Playing in place of starter Alex Highsmith, who was ruled out for the second half with a groin injury and is likely to miss several weeks, Herbig made quick work of Chargers left tackle Rashawn Slater, speed rushing around him to bring down Herbert.
