Steelers OL Nate Herbig is a proud big bro talking about rookie Nick Herbig
Nate said he was more excited about Nick’s sack in his NFL preseason debut than Nick was pic.twitter.com/KbJE5dGM2S

Keanu Neal on assimilation with a new team – it helps to have an old (new) teammate! pic.twitter.com/jhtgKQKtMf
— Chris Adamski (@C_AdamskiTrib) August 15, 2023
Keeanu Benton stopped by to pester Nick Herbig during his interview with the media. Herbig just did the same thing with Broderick Jones. I think it’s safe to say the #Steelers rookies are close.

— Chris Adamski (@C_AdamskiTrib) August 15, 2023
Broderick Jones has talked about how tough it is to block Nick Herbig in camp, so he was not at all surprised what his fellow rookie did in Tampa. “He’s really elusive… He got two sacks in 13 snaps, you tell me what that looks like?”
— Brian Batko (@BrianBatko) August 15, 2023
#Steelers guard Nate Herbig said he's working his way back from his shoulder injury. Didn't seem like it's anything major.
— Alan Saunders (@ASaunders_PGH) August 15, 2023
Looks like Spencer Anderson is getting some work at center today. Could be the first rime we see him there at camp in team periods. Nate Herbig not practicing.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Injury Report Rundown: Cam Heyward is back today. Don’t see Larry Ogunjobi. Joey Porter Jr. practicing while Tre Norwood isn’t. No Nick Kwiatkoski at ILB.
Markus Golden is a surprise guy not practicing today. Something to watch.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Nick Herbig’s burst off the line of scrimmage is just different lol. Dude pops off the ball just a little different than most guys when they’re side by side.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Steelers CBs have bands around their ankles to train their ‘anchor step’ in press coverage today.
Here’s Joey Porter Jr. going through the drill. All about training footwork. pic.twitter.com/FfHXRJo97Y

Seven Shots time
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
First play of seven shots, Najee Harris takes the carry off inside zone and runs it untouched. Great block by Daniels to clear the lane. 1-0 offense.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Allen Robinson on a fade route but it’s incomplete. Great defense on the play by Levi Wallace.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Kenny Pickett looks for George Pickens on a slant route by Joey Porter Jr. is there and breaks it up. There’s the JPJ win over Pickens.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Connor Heyward shakes Kenny Robinson on the out and up and is wide open for a touchdown. 3-2 defense right now.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
For the deciding rep, Mike Tomlin calls the first team offense and defense back onto the field. The stakes have been upped, folks.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Diontae Johnson beats Chandon Sullivan on a pivot route and he catches it for a touchdown. Ball from Kenny Pickett.
Offense comes from down 3-1 to win seven shots 4-3.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
James Daniels having a quietly excellent training camp. Looks better than he did last year. More comfortable.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Impressive showing so far for Dylan Cook in the lineman two on twos. Underrated player. He’s got fantastic foot quickness.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
The Steelers centers every time they try to scoop block Breiden Fehoko
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Spencer Anderson taking his first reps at center in camp during these linemen two-on-twos
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Isaiahh Loudermilk with another good showing so far today. He’s had a good camp, man.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Keanu Neal and Joey Porter Jr. both got work in team / seven shots so far. Looks like the secondary is nearly back to being fully healthy.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Jaylen Warren somehow just got out of a hole when met by two people in the backfield. Looked like he was swarmed and he just…..got out of it.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Nick Herbig destroys the left side of a counter run play. Huge TFL.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Broderick Jones comes out to block in space on a toss play and Mark Robinson just destroyed the rookie LT. Goodness gracious what a collision. Defensive pancake.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Breiden Fehoko is a bonafide space eater. Eats up a double team and it allows Elijah Riley to fly through for the TFL.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Meanwhile, rookie lineman Spencer Anderson is getting his first team work at center with the 2s.
— Alan Saunders (@ASaunders_PGH) August 15, 2023
Calvin Austin with an explosive play on a corner route. 30 yards.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Isaac Seumalo just cleared out the left side of the line. Great block to allow Najee Harris to run for a solid gain.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Matt Canada just ran a screen to Darnell Washington. Went for about 20.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Tight end screens to Darnell Washington are a great way to find out who really, really wants to make a tackle. When the big man gets moving, he’s a load.
— Alan Saunders (@ASaunders_PGH) August 15, 2023
Poor Madre Harper, a CB, getting drive back by Darnell Washington and FB Kendrick Green.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Isaac Seumalo did a great job against Cam Heyward. Anchored well against that patented bull rush.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Chuks Okorafor wins 2 out of 3 matchups against TJ Watt today. On the final one, Okorafor sent Watt into the ground on a snatch trap.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Great job by Broderick Jones against Nick Herbig on his spin move. Stayed patient and didn’t allow his near shoulder to get too wide. Stayed on his spot.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
James Pierre with a diving interception of Mitch Trubisky in the end zone in 7 on 7.
Meanwhile, linemen are doing 1-on-1s and Kendrick Green just won back to back reps against Isaiahh Loudermilk.
— Brian Batko (@BrianBatko) August 15, 2023
Broderick Jones stock 📈
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Elandon Roberts doesn’t receive a ton of teams reps but every time he does the man destroys a few run plays in the backfield.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Secondary is on an absolute heater.
Pass breaks ups for Minkah, Levi, and Pat Pete. Minkah gets one against Pickens and the secondary chirps at him.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
Another practice in the books. pic.twitter.com/LbVw76X5BV
— Alan Saunders (@ASaunders_PGH) August 15, 2023
For what it’s worth. Larry Ogunjobi still has a boot in his right foot.
— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 15, 2023
