Crisan: Herbig continues to blossom, and edge depth is coming up Golden

The Steelers invested a Brinks truck into their starting outside linebackers, and the lucrative extensions for T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith were warranted, necessary, and worth the while of the Steelers' front office. Insurance policies for those investments, though, had to be purchased after last season's deficiencies from the rest of the room that caused the Steelers to drop in producing sacks and quarterback hits.

On a pristine Saturday evening at Acrisure stadium, the insurance policies cashed in on what is normally a buttoned=up, fortified Bills offensive front. Nick Herbig and Markus Golden gave a glimpse of the potential that this room can reach in the Steelers' 27-15 win over the Bills in their second preseason game.
