Nick Herbig has signed a four-year, $100 million contract extension with the Pittsburgh Steelers, including $42 million guaranteed. The deal ends brief uncertainty surrounding his future after limited participation during minicamp negotiations. Herbig, a fourth-round pick in 2023, has steadily emerged as a key defensive contributor. With Herbig now locked in alongside T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith, Pittsburgh has secured one of the NFL's strongest edge-rushing groups for the foreseeable future.
