Cardinals Won't Trade Josh Sweat

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, the Arizona Cardinals will not trade edge rusher Josh Sweat despite recent trade speculation and his absence from the team's offseason program.

Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur recently addressed trade rumors, confirming that the team will keep Sweat. The edge rusher signed a four-year, $76.4 million deal with Arizona last year and had 30 tackles, 12 sacks, four forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in his first season with the team. catcross.biz

Sweat missed voluntary portions of the offseason work, but based on reports from inside and outside the organization, he will get a chance to add to those totals in a Cardinals uniform this fall.
