Nick Herbig Injury: Not suiting up Week 1

Herbig (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against Seattle, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Herbig suffered a hamstring injury Aug. 16 in a preseason game and hasn't been able to fully recover. He did participate in practice in a limited fashion this week but isn't quite ready for game action. Herbig's absence Sunday should make more rotational linebacker snaps available for Jack Sawyer.
