Nick Herbig made the biggest play of his career to date in the Pittsburgh Steelers’ 30-23 win over the Seattle Seahawks. It was a crucial play in a big moment as the Seahawks had plenty of time to get down the field and tie the game up with seven minutes remaining and two timeouts. The play set up the Steelers’ offense inside the red zone, and they went on to kick a field goal to make it a two-possession game with just over four and a half minutes remaining.

T.J. Watt spoke to the media on Tuesday afternoon after practice in a video posted on the Steelers’ website and was asked about his visible excitement for Herbig on the field following the play.
