Needing a play defensively after getting a touchdown to make it an 18-13 game, a familiar face came through for the Pittsburgh Steelers on the defensive side of the football.

That would be second-year outside linebacker Nick Herbig.

Herbig raced home on a second-down passing play for the Cleveland Browns, stripping quarterback Jameis Winston of the football, leading to a Steelers' recovery, which ultimately set up a go-ahead 23-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Russell Wilson to Calvin Austin III, giving the Steelers a 19-18 lead after a failed 2-point conversion.

Prior to Herbig's strip-sack, the Steelers had just five pressures on the night. But in a big spot, Herbig made a play, much like he always does.

Take a look.

Ball out, Steelers recover in great field position.

A few plays later, Wilson hit Austin on a post route for the go-ahead score as Austin won in a contested-catch situation for the biggest play of the night.
