? Roman Wilson and Nick Herbig were teammates at Saint Louis High School in Honolulu, Hawaii. They also grew up playing youth football together.
āWe kind of grew up together a little bit,ā Wilson said on a conference call with Pittsburgh media. āSo, thatās my guy.
āI never thought I would be on the same team as him in the NFL. But as I got closer to the draft day, there were more and more rumblings about it. I could kind of see it happening before it started.ā
