Eagles get major Josh Sweat trade update on bringing back pass rusher

16 hours ago 3

The Philadelphia Eagles know Josh Sweat very well.

If the trade rumors are true, they might get to reunite with him very soon.

Reports on social media on Wednesday suggest a Sweat trade could be close, and that it'll either involve the Eagles or the Green Bay Packers:

Ollie Connolly, who was plugged in with Jonathan Greenard trade to Eagles, says Josh Sweat will be traded today.

It will either be to the Packers or Eagles.

Sweat was originally a fourth-round draft pick by the Eagles in the 2018 NFL Draft out of Florida State. 

He went on to play his first seven NFL seasons in Philly, including a Super Bowl ring in that time. 

He had 43.0 sacks in 104 Eagles games, going from a non-contributor as a rookie to a consistently productive player off the edge.

Sweat joined the Arizona Cardinals for the 2025 season and took his game to another level, notching a career-high 12 sacks while also forcing four fumbles.

Now, with the Cardinals looking toward the future, it would be logical for them to trade Sweat to a contender in the present. 

It sounds like the Eagles aren't alone in the clash for Sweat's services, but getting him back would be a big win for Philly.
