Steelers EDGE Nick Herbig out with ankle injury

The Steelers are woefully thin at outside linebacker.

The Pittsburgh Steelers came into Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts dangerously thin at outside linebacker. Alex Highsmith was out with Nick Herbig in his spot in the starting lineup. Now Herbig is out for the remainder of the game with an ankle injury.

Herbig came in for Highsmith last week and had a huge performance against the Los Angeles Chargers. Now with Herbig out, the Steelers will have to count on defensive end DeMarvin Leal to fill the void opposite T.J. Watt.
