What happened: Arizona Cardinals defensive end Josh Sweat is reportedly open to being traded ahead of the Nov. 10 trade deadline. Sweat has held that stance dating back to the offseason, leaving any potential move up to Arizona. Multiple teams have expressed interest in acquiring the veteran edge rusher.

Why it matters: Earlier this season, the Cardinals told teams a Josh Sweat trade was not planned heading into the regular season. At 3-5 through 8 games, Arizona faces a critical decision on whether to retain the defensive end or move him for future draft capital.

By the numbers: Sweat has made 22 tackles with 3 sacks in 2026 through 8 games, while Arizona holds a 3-5 record through 8 games.

What to watch: Arizona must determine whether to execute a deal before the Nov. 10 deadline. Potential suitors will monitor the Cardinals' asking price over the coming week.
