Cardinals' Josh Sweat: Not likely to be traded
The Cardinals do not intend to trade Sweat (knee), Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
Rumors about Sweat's potential departure from the team were swiftly shut down by general manager Monti Ossenfort on Monday. Between the star defensive end's minor knee injury and the Cardinals' projected standing in the NFC West for 2026, many thought Sweat would be a prime trade candidate as the team tries to recoup some capital and build for the future. However, Ossenfort's comments cast doubt on that possibility, and it therefore appears the star pass rusher is set to play out the 2026 season in Arizona.

Cardinals' Josh Sweat: Knee injury not considered serious
Sweat (knee), who was placed on the active/PUP list Thursday, isn't dealing with a serious injury, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Sweat's placement on the PUP list was a surprise given his participation in mandatory minicamp in early June, but coach Mike LaFleur described the transaction, along with the PUP placement of left tackle Paris Johnson Jr., as "really just maintenance." LaFleur also said that Sweat is "fired up" to be at training camp and is "in great spirits and feeling good." It sounds like Sweat should be a full-go by the beginning of the regular season, and he'll look to build upon the career-high 12.0 sacks he recorded across 17 games last year.

Cardinals' Josh Sweat: Beginning camp on PUP list
Sweat (undisclosed) was placed on the active/PUP list Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
Sweat was a healthy participant in the mandatory part of the Cardinals' offseason activities. The premier pass rusher has seemingly picked up an injury between June's program and training camp. Sweat logged 12.0 sacks for the team during the 2025 campaign, a career high good for eighth in the entire league. If the 29-year-old has sustained a significant injury, it could impact opening day participation and production for the Cardinals' defensive line.

Cardinals' Josh Sweat: Back for mandatory minicamp
Sweat was present for the Cardinals' mandatory minicamp Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Sweat chose not to participate in Arizona's voluntary OTAs, but he's now returned for the mandatory part of the offseason program. The veteran edge rusher impressed during his first season with the Cardinals, appearing in all 17 games and posting 30 total tackles, including a career-high 12.0 sacks, four forced fumbles and two passes defensed. He's expected to remain one of the NFL's top pass rushers ahead of the 2026 season.

Cardinals' Josh Sweat: New career high in sacks
Sweat recorded 30 tackles including 12.0 sacks, four forced fumbles, two pass defenses and one fumble recovery over 17 regular-season games in 2025.
After totaling 43.0 sacks in 104 regular-season contests to begin his career with the Eagles, Sweat secured a four-year, $76.4 million contract in free agency from the Cardinals last March. The 28-year-old responded with a career-high sack tally, tying for eighth in the NFL with the Texans' Will Anderson and Rams' Byron Young. Sweat should again be Arizona's primary threat off the edge in 2026.

Cardinals' Josh Sweat: All set for season finale
Sweat (ankle) is active for Sunday's contest against the Rams.
Sweat was considered questionable to play after missing the team's first two practices of the week before logging a limited session Friday due to ankle and knee injuries, but he's now going to give it a go in Week 18.

Cardinals' Josh Sweat: Questionable for Week 18
Sweat (ankle) is listed as questionable against the Rams on Sunday, Bo Brack of GoPHNX.com reports.
Sweat missed the first two practices of Week 18 prep due to ankle and knee injuries, but he earned the questionable tag for Sunday's regular-season finale after logging a limited practice Friday. He was able to play through the injuries against the Bengals in Week 17, though he was limited to just 24 defensive snaps. If Sweat doesn't play or operates under a snap count, then Dante Stills and Jordan Burch would be in line for more snaps on the Cardinals' defensive line.

Cardinals' Josh Sweat: DNP to open Week 18 prep
Sweat (ankle/knee) did not practice Wednesday, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
Sweat did not practice during Week 17 prep due to ankle and knee injuries but was still cleared to play against the Bengals, when he logged one tackle while playing 24 defensive snaps. He's opened Week 18 prep with a DNP but may need to practice in order to play in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Rams. If Sweat ends up sitting out, Dante Stills and Jordan Burch would be poised to see more snaps at defensive end.
