The Pittsburgh Steelers and edge rusher Nick Herbig reached an agreement on a contract extension Tuesday, per ESPN, which locks Herbig into the team’s long-term future. It’s a four-year deal worth $100 million, including $42 million guaranteed. The hefty raise reportedly makes Herbig the first non-quarterback to land a $100 million contract without starting an entire NFL season in his career.
Across his first three years in the NFL, Herbig logged 45 appearances with just 11 starts. He has never started more than six games in a single season and is effectively the third option in the pass-rushing scheme behind T.J.
