Eagles' Josh Sweat: Second on team with 6.5 sacks
Josh Sweat finished his sixth NFL season with 6.5 sacks (second-best on the Philadelphia Eagles) and 43 tackles in 17 regular-season games.Sweat was a larger part of the Eagles' defensive end rotation this season, as his 71 percent snap share was a big jump over his 56 percent mark from last season. His numbers took a step back despite the extra opportunities, however, as he couldn't come close to matching his 11.0 sacks from 2022. That's largely due to a late-season slump, as Sweat had 5.5 sacks through nine games but didn't manage another until Week 18.
