Cardinals, Bears, Panthers discuss trade proposal involving Josh Sweat
Summary

A proposed three-team trade would send Arizona Cardinals pass rusher Josh Sweat to the Chicago Bears. In exchange, the Cardinals would receive two fourth-round picks while the Bears would send tight end Cole Kmet to the Carolina Panthers. Sweat, amidst trade rumors and reported discontent, did not participate in the Cardinals' voluntary offseason program or mandatory minicamp, although the team insists there are no issues. The Cardinals reportedly have no plans to trade Sweat at this time, as losing their top pass rusher without adequate replacements would be detrimental to the team's performance.
