Herbig did not record a sack through the first five games of the regular season, but the fourth-year pro got to quarterback Jalon Daniels twice during Sunday's OT victory. Herbig is up to 18 tackles (13 solo) and one forced fumble through six regular-season games while working in a rotational role on defense.
