## Resource

Steelers just handed Nick Herbig a $100M extension—set to kick in next season—keeping T.J. Watt, Alex Highsmith, and Herbig together for one more year. While this move delays tough decisions, it locks in a pricey trio: Watt’s massive deal, Herbig’s new $8M/year bump over Highsmith, and Highsmith’s final year. With Highsmith’s contract expiring and Watt’s deal potentially restructured, the Steelers face a pivotal financial crossroads that could reshape their defense for years to come.
