Overview

• Pittsburgh hosted Herbig for a workout on Sept. 23, according to the NFL transactions wire.
• The visit did not produce an immediate agreement, leaving the lineman unsigned after the tryout.
• The look stems from an interior depth hole created by backup guard Max Scharping’s torn ACL and placement on injured reserve last week.
• Herbig retired in July after signing with the Commanders and was cleared to visit teams when Washington took him off the reserve/retired list earlier this week.
• The former Steelers interior swingman has 61 career games and 30 starts at guard and center, missed 2024 with a shoulder injury, and Pittsburgh currently dresses only Spencer Anderson as a backup guard.
