Former Eagles player helps his old team – Cardinals win, surprise gift for Philadelphia.
Glendale, Arizona – The Philadelphia Eagles might have been on a bye week, but they still found themselves celebrating — thanks to one familiar face wearing a different color.
Former Eagle Josh Sweat, now with the Arizona Cardinals, turned in a monster performance in Week 9 that not only fueled his new team but also gave his old one an unexpected gift.
In Arizona’s 27-17 victory over the Dallas Cowboys, Sweat was unstoppable — recording five quarterback hits, two sacks, two tackles for loss, and constant pressure that kept Dak Prescott off rhythm all night long.
The win helped the Cardinals move to 3-5… and gave the Eagles a three-game cushion atop the NFC East.
For Philadelphia fans, it felt like watching a flashback. Sweat, who spent seven years in midnight green, made the Pro Bowl in 2021 and led the team in sacks last season before leaving in free agency. His departure was bittersweet — but his Week 9 performance reminded everyone that once an Eagle, always an Eagle.
Social media lit up after the game:
“He might wear red now, but his heart still beats midnight green.”
“That’s brotherhood — that’s Philly.”
The Eagles may have moved on, but on that Sunday night, Josh Sweat was still fighting for them — in spirit, in pride, and in legacy.
Some bonds, it seems, never fade.
