….with a high ankle sprain.

More snaps for lil Nikki Herbig could really help the run D accomplish some of those historic things Jibba was jabberin about.

Good situational pass rusher.

Overpowered in the run game.

Leal must be happy

I felt like the loudersilk injury is the better news.

Finally, softer than silk can move on with his life’s work outside of pretending to play D-end in the nfl.

This is great news for other DLinemen more deserving of game reps and development.

I bring in Wilkins to the Dl

Highsmith is a certified bitch.

Like most of this defense is. Total phonies.

Weirdly I’m fine with Highsmith being out. This past offseason there were rumors Herbig would be traded. Fuck that, I wanted Highsmith gone.

We know what Highsmith is. He’ll show up 3-4 games per year and will look like a hero and the rest of the season he’s useless.

Jack Sawyer played pretty well yesterday despite missing a tackle in short yardage and the Steelers have to find out if he’s going to be a major piece going forward.

I’m fine with a rotation of Watt, Herbig and Sawyer and after QB, I think OLB would be my second pick in the draft (providing we have a second rounder after we trade up for a QB.)

I know some see WR2 as the obvious pick but not in Arthur Smith’s offense.

why not.
This defense could use a little crazy, pizzaz, some fire.

Jack Sawyer getting more action is fine with me. He's outplaying the 2 overpaid guys in front of him.
