Eagles Explore Trade Options for Pro Bowl Edge Rusher Josh Sweat

In a move to revamp their defense, the Eagles are considering trading Josh Sweat, aiming to align the roster with new coordinator Vic Fangio's strategy.

The Philadelphia Eagles are actively seeking trade opportunities for Pro Bowl edge rusher Josh Sweat, who has accumulated 35 career sacks and is only 26 years old.
Sweat's potential trade is part of the Eagles' broader strategy to overhaul their defense under new coordinator Vic Fangio, aiming to adapt the roster to fit the new scheme.
Despite a dip in performance in 2023, Sweat remains confident in his ability to impact games, citing an increase in quarterback pressures and hits.
The Eagles are also considering trading Haason Reddick and are looking to create opportunities for 2023 first-round draft choice Nolan Smith.
Trading Sweat could have significant salary cap implications for the Eagles, potentially incurring a $14.31 million dead-money charge and costing an additional $5.38 million against the cap for the 2024 season.
