Herbig, a first-team All-Big 10 selection this season, accumulated 11 sacks and two forced fumbles in his junior season, making his declaration for the draft expected.
The Kauai product showcased improvement in each of his three seasons as a Badger, going from one sack in his freshman season to nine as a sophomore before his 11-sack season in 2022 as a junior.
Herbig will not participate in Wisconsin’s bowl game against Oklahoma State, instead focusing his efforts on preparing for the NFL Draft.
