What happened: The Arizona Cardinals have received trade calls on Pro Bowl defensive end Josh Sweat, according to a report from Jordan Schultz. Sweat recorded 12 sacks in his first season with Arizona. He also had a close relationship with Jonathan Gannon, whom the Cardinals have since moved on from.

Why it matters: Sweat was Arizona's most productive edge rusher in his debut season, so fielding calls signals the Cardinals may be open to reshaping their defensive front this offseason. The reported severing of ties with Gannon, with whom Sweat was close, adds context to why his name is surfacing in trade talk. Moving a proven double-digit-sack producer would create a significant hole on the edge entering the 2026 season.

What to watch: Watch for whether the Cardinals' interest moves past calls into active negotiations, and which teams emerge as suitors. Any deal or public denial from Arizona's front office would be the next confirming signal.
