Sweezy leaving Seahawks for Cards, sources say

Former Seattle Seahawks guard J.R. Sweezy has agreed to a two-year deal with the Arizona Cardinals, sources confirm to ESPN.

His addition gives the Cardinals a replacement for Mike Iupati, who is a free agent after finishing the 2018 season on injured reserve.

Sweezy, who turns 30 in April, has played right and left guard during his seven-year NFL career.

The NFL Network first reported Sweezy's deal with Arizona, which cannot become official until the start of the new league year Wednesday.

Sweezy made 15 starts for the Seahawks in 2018 after re-joining the team on a one-year deal that paid him around $1.
