Cardinals' Brissett, Sweat at Minicamp but Not Practicing

Quarterback Jacoby Brissett and edge rusher Josh Sweat attended the Arizona Cardinals' mandatory minicamp to avoid fines but did not participate in Tuesday's practice.

Brissett is seeking a contract raise after entering the second year of his two-year deal signed in March 2025. The 33-year-old quarterback is scheduled to make $4.88 million in 2026 with only $1.5 million guaranteed. Meanwhile, Sweat, who led the team with a career-high 12 sacks last season, has drawn trade interest from other teams despite his four-year, $76.4 million contract with the Cardinals.

Both players skipped the voluntary portion of the team's offseason program. While they avoided the $107,911 fine for missing all three days of mandatory minicamp, they remain absent from practice sessions. The Cardinals reportedly do not intend to trade Sweat despite receiving trade calls. biznow.biz
