As the Arizona Cardinals concluded voluntary OTAs this week, two player absences have been noticed. One is outside linebacker Josh Sweat, who led the team with 12 sacks in 2025 after signing a four-year, $76.4 million deal in free agency.
While a report insists the Cardinals will not be trading Sweat, ESPN's Dan Graziano adds information that Cardinals fans have been fearing. He isn't happy.
Graziano includes Sweat as one of 10 players who are trade candidates, but this nugget is why Cardinals fans should worry some.
Sweat is staying away from Arizona's offseason program and letting it be known he's not happy there.
Why isn't he happy? Perhaps it was because they fired Jonathan Gannon as head coach. Perhaps it was expecting to join a team with playoff hopes and ending up on a three-win team with little hope of success in 2026.
