The NFL trade deadline is just over two weeks away on November 10th at 4 p.m. ET. That makes it the perfect time for NFL fans and analysts to speculate about potential trades. Two teams are connected to one Cardinals pass rusher, which comes with a delicious bit of irony.

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano discussed which teams might makes moves at the deadline in a recent article. Both the Cowboys and Packers came up as possibilities for a potential Josh Sweat trade.

“As one team exec pointed out to me Tuesday, Josh Sweat to Dallas makes a lot of sense. He fits Dallas' profile, and the Cowboys need edge-rush help. Sweat's Cardinals won Sunday, but they are not contention-adjacent just yet. Sweat has been linked to the Packers, too, but Green Bay has Micah Parsons returning eventually.”

Of course, that is quite ironic because those are the two teams involved in the Micah Parsons trade.

The Packers landed Parsons, who has been sidelined after last season's ACL injury. Green Bay's easiest path to improving their pass rush is simply getting Parsons back on the field. Once that happens, Parsons and Lukas Van Ness will give the Packers an excellent starting duo.

However, the presence of former Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon has Sweat trade rumors alive and well.

Meanwhile, the Cowboys look much more desperate to add talent on the edge. Dallas only has eight sacks so far this season with Rashan Gary and Donovan Ezeiruaku not looking up to the task.

But Fowler noted that Dallas may not be in position to make another huge trade.

“A source told me a trade to aid the Cowboys defense is not a front-burner issue at the moment. So, Dallas will always explore a potential move, but it's quite possible the franchise holds onto whatever 2027 draft capital it has left (just three picks in the first six rounds),” Fowler added.

It will be interesting to see if either team end up landing a pass rusher over the next few weeks.
