The Dallas Cowboys were turned away by the Arizona Cardinals in their pursuit of former Philadelphia Eagles edge rusher Josh Sweat. The Cowboys aimed to strengthen their pass rush ahead of the 2026-27 season after missing out on Myles Garrett. Reports indicate that Dallas made a move for Sweat, but negotiations did not progress, likely due to unwillingness to meet the Cardinals' demands. With the Cowboys unable to secure Sweat, he appears to be focused on a trade to either the Green Bay Packers or back to the Eagles.
