Steelers Place OL Nate Herbig On IR, Make Multiple Roster Moves

The Pittsburgh Steelers have made multiple roster moves Tuesday, headlined by placing C/G Nate Herbig on injured reserve. Herbig injured his shoulder in the final hour of the Steelers’ 16th and last training camp practice. Reportedly, he tore his rotator cuff and because he was placed on IR today and not Aug. 27, he won’t be eligible to return later this year.

In addition to Herbig’s move to IR, the team also released veteran CB Anthony Averett. With two open roster spots, the team signed a pair of LBs in Kyahva Tezino and Marcus Haynes.
