Mike McCarthy said Nick Herbig ‘deserved’ his new deal with the Steelers, after inking a contract that makes him one of the highest-paid ‘reserve’ players in NFL history. It’s a $100M+ deal for the Steelers third edge rusher on the depth chart. Are the Steelers going to make it more of a true 3-man rotation if they don’t deal TJ Watt or Alex Highsmith? It’s hard to take down the snaps for the two players ahead of Herbig.
