Sweat isn't listed on the Eagles' injury report Tuesday. Sweat was sidelined for the regular-season finale due to a neck injury he suffered in Week 17, but the Eagles' wild-card bye proved beneficial. The veteran defensive end's omission from the injury report suggests he's put the issue behind him and should be full go for Saturday's divisional-round matchup against the Giants. Sweat posted a career-high 11 sacks this season and is a key piece of Philadelphia's vaunted defensive front.... See More ... See Less

Eagles' Josh Sweat: Considered day-to-day
Sweat (neck) is being evaluated on a day-to-day basis after being released from the hospital Sunday, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Coach Nick Sirianni didn't offer much information regarding Sweat's recovery Monday, but the defensive lineman recently said on Twitter that he plans to return prior to the end of the season. His status for Sunday's game against the Giants will likely come into focus based on how much he's able to practice this week.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: Posts two sacks Sunday
Sweat recorded six tackles (five solo), including two sacks, during Sunday's 25-20 win over Chicago. Sweat continued his hot streak of bringing down opposing quarterbacks, recording both of his sacks on just one drive in the fourth quarter. The fifth-year defensive end has been a key component of the Eagles' top-ranked pass rush, recording a career-high 9.5 sacks over 14 games this season as well as six over the last four weeks. Sweat should have a chance to continue adding to this impressive total as the Cowboys are forced to devote attention across the Eagles' deep defensive line.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: Back to full strength
Sweat (illness) is now 100 percent after being rushed to the hospital due to internal bleeding in his abdomen from a ruptured artery in January, Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com reports. Sweat missed the Eagles' playoff game against the Buccaneers in January after undergoing an emergency procedure due to a serious medical matter. Details on the issue were undisclosed at the time, but Sweat played in the Pro Bowl at the end of January and appears fully recovered. The four-year pro set career highs across the board last season and figures to be an integral part of the Eagles' defensive line next season.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: Won't play Sunday
Sweat (illness) is inactive for Sunday' playoff game against the Buccaneers. Per Adam Schefter of ESPN, Sweat underwent an emergency procedure Tuesday to address a serious medical matter. Though the report notes that Sweat improved every day to the point that he came close to playing Sunday, he wasn't quite ready to suit up. In the pass rusher's absence, Ryan Kerrigan, Milton Williams and Tarron Jackson are candidates to see added snaps.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: Inactive Saturday
Sweat (coach's decision) is inactive Saturday against the Cowboys. Sweat will get the night off, since the Eagles have a playoff spot already locked up. Ryan Kerrigan will likely see an increase in opportunity against the Cowboys.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: Expects to play Sunday
Sweat (concussion) is listed as questionable but is expected to clear concussion protocols and play in Week 10 against the Broncos, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Sweat suffered a concussion during the Eagles' Week 9 loss to the Chargers. The defensive end recorded a limited practice Thursday and is expected to clear concussion protocols Saturday. Expect Ryan Kerrigan to see an increased role Sunday if Sweat suffers any setback and is unable to suit up.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: In concussion protocol
Sweat didn't practice Wednesday due to a concussion, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports. Sweat apparently suffered the injury during Sunday's loss to the Chargers. He'll need to fully clear the concussion protocol before returning to the field for Philadelphia.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: Inks extension
Sweat and the Eagles have agreed on a three-year, $40 million extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The deal will keep Sweat in Philadelphia throughout the 2024 season. The fourth-year defensive end drew rave reviews from teammates throughout training camp and is expected to be a breakout candidate in 2021. He recorded six sacks in 2020 while playing just 38 percent of defensive snaps.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: Goes to injured reserve
Sweat (wrist) was placed on injured reserve Saturday. The 2018 fourth-round draft choice contributed two sacks against the Saints as Philadelphia pulled off a Week 14 upset, but he had to exit in the first quarter of last Sunday's loss to Arizona. Now confirmed out for at least three games given his IR designation, Sweat won't have a chance at another appearance this season unless the Eagles reach the playoffs and advance a round....

Eagles' Josh Sweat: Injures wrist Sunday
Sweat was forced out of Sunday's game versus the Cardinals with a wrist injury. Sweat went directly to the locker room in the first quarter, possibly to undergo an X-ray. The third-year defensive end is a fierce pass rusher with six sacks this season. Vinny Curry likely will see an uptick in usage behind starter Brandon Graham and Derek Barnett moving forward....

Eagles' Josh Sweat: Two sacks Sunday
Sweat recorded five tackles (four solo), two sacks and a forced fumble across 25 defensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Saints. Sweat caused headaches for Taysom Hill all day, taking down the quarterback twice during the contest, one of which resulted in a fumble that was recovered by the Eagles. He is now third on the team in sacks with six to go along with 38 tackles (24 solo) on the year.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: Flashes pass-rushing ability
Sweat recorded 21 tackles, four sacks and a pass breakup over 16 regular-season games in 2019. In his second professional season, Sweat displayed a strong pass-rushing presence, logging 15 quarterback pressures. The 22-year-old finished with 355 defensive snaps, ranking fourth among the Eagles' defensive ends behind Brandon Graham, Derek Barnett and Vinny Curry. Curry will be a free agent in March while both Graham and Barnett are under contract in 2020, so Sweat will likely work in a rotational role again.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: First career sack
Sweat made four solo tackles and a sack in Sunday's win over the Jets. The second-year pro finally got his first sack in the 14th game of his career. He still has little upside on this defense, though, as he hasn't surpassed a 35-percent snap share this season.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: Expected back for OTAs
Sweat (ankle) is expected to be healthy in time for the start of OTAs this spring, Dave Spadaro of the Eagles' official site reports. Sweat's rookie season ended in Week 14 after the Florida State product injured his ankle, which promptly sent him to injured reserve. However, the idea that Sweat could be recovered in just a few months suggests the 2018 fourth-rounder didn't tear up his ankle too badly. If Sweat is able to make it back for OTAs, he'll have a full offseason to climb up a depth chart that may no longer have either Brandon Graham or Chris Long, both of whom will become unrestricted free agents in March....

Eagles' Josh Sweat: Lands on IR
Sweat (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday. Sweat sustained an ankle injury during Sunday's 29-23 loss to the Cowboys, the severity of which now lands him on season-ending injured reserve. Daeshon Hall replaces the rookie fourth-round pick on the Eagles' 53-man roster, but Chris Long should be the primary beneficiary of increased snaps in Sweat's stead.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: Debut imminent
Sweat will likely be active and see the field for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Dave Spadaro of the Eagles' official site reports. Sweat, the Eagles' 2018 fourth-round pick, should finally see some snaps in place of Derek Barnett (shoulder). Just how many remains to be seen, but expect the rookie to work in behind Michael Bennett and Chris Long, both of whom should see increased playing time.... See More ... See Less -
Eagles' Josh Sweat: Returns to practice
Sweat (leg) returned to practice Sunday, Eliot Shorr-Parks reports. Sweat limped off the field during Thursday's practice, but his return Sunday suggests the fourth-round rookie didn't sustain a severe injury. Sweat is competing for a rotational role at defensive end. Given the depth Philadelphia has at the position, he's likely facing an uphill battle for playing time in 2018.... See More ... See Less

Dave Spadaro@EaglesInsider01/01/1970Build depth on edge. In this case, retaining with @brandongraham55 is a strong way to start the roster-building ‘23. Graham, Josh Sweat, Haason Reddick, bringing back Derek Barnett, Patrick Johnson and Kyron Johnson is solid. You know Howie Roseman will keep 👀 #FlyEaglesFly
