Steelers EDGE Nick Herbig inactive vs. Jets

The Pittsburgh Steelers are less than an hour away from taking on the New York Jets, and they will be doing so without one of their top defenders.

Nick Herbig is inactive for Week 1. The Steelers were hopeful that a productive week of practice would lead to him being a go for the opening contest of the year, but he will not be available as he deals with a hamstring injury. The full list of inactives is as follows:

• QB Skylar Thompson (Emergency third QB)
• EDGE Nick Herbig
• OL Max Scharping
• OL Andrus Peat
• DE Esezi Otomewo
• DT Derrick Harmon
