Cardinals activated edge rusher Josh Sweat from PUP. Via @AdamSchefter on X

What happened: The move clears Josh Sweat to practice after a camp-long absence. Arizona placed him on active/PUP on July 23 while managing a knee issue.

Why it matters: Activation before roster cutdown avoids a transfer to reserve/PUP, which would require at least a four-game absence. The timing gives him the remaining preseason window to prepare for the opener.

What to watch: His practice participation will show how quickly Arizona restores his preseason workload.
