Titans pull off February trade, swap Sweat for Jermaine Johnson II
The Tennessee Titans have agreed to trade nose tackle T'Vondre Sweat to the New York Jets in exchange for edge rusher Jermaine Johnson II, a deal that cannot be consummated until the new league year opens March 11. Johnson would reunite with Titans head coach Robert Saleh, having posted 13.0 sacks across four seasons and earned a 2023 Pro Bowl before a 2024 injury diminished his production. The move addresses Tennessee's need for pass-rushing help around star defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons and adds Sweat's run-stuffing presence to the middle, while giving the Jets an edge upgrade as they map out their off-season plans.
