Swaim is signing with the Cardinals on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Swaim has spent each of the past three seasons in Tennessee and appeared in 17 contests last year. The veteran finished with 12 receptions on 16 targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in 2022. He should compete for a backup role behind Zach Ertz (knee) and Trey McBride.

Titans' Geoff Swaim: Playing time dwindles further
Rotowire
Swaim recorded one reception on one target for four yards in Sunday's 35-10 loss to the Eagles.
Swaim played a season-low 20 snaps while continuing to give way to both Austin Hooper and Chigoziem Okonkwo. His lone catch of the game came midway through the third quarter and was not impactful. Even if Swaim sees his playing time tick back up, his primary role will almost certainly be as a blocker.

Titans' Geoff Swaim: Being phased out of passing attack
Rotowire
Swaim failed to corral his lone target while playing 31 snaps on offense in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Bengals.
With rookie Chigoziem Okonkwo and top tight end Austin Hooper having both taken on heightened roles in the Tennessee passing attack of late, Swaim has functioned mainly as a blocker in recent weeks. After drawing seven targets across the Titans' first three games of the season, Swaim has been targeted a combined five times in Tennessee's subsequent eight contests. The lack of involvement isn't the result of any major downturn in playing time, either; Swaim has logged snap shares above 50 percent in each of those eight games.

Titans' Geoff Swaim: Catches three passes in Week 1
Rotowire
Swaim caught three of four targets for 19 yards during Sunday's 21-20 loss to the Giants.
Swaim played five more snaps than Austin Hooper, who finished with just one catch for six yards on two targets. After the game, coach Mike Vrabel said Swaim earned his large role on offense due to the fact that "he's the best blocking tight end we have," per Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site. Swaim finished last season with 32 receptions, 210 yards and three scores across 16 appearances. He's never been a prolific pass catcher, but it appears he's carved out a major role in Tennessee's offense, which doesn't bode well for Hooper's fantasy success moving forward.

Titans' Geoff Swaim: Staying with Titans
Rotowire
The Titans have agreed to a one-year deal with Swaim, John Glennon of SI.com reports.
The 28-year-old is coming off a 2021 season in which he recorded 31 catches (on 40 targets) for 210 yards and three TDs in 16 games. Swaim's fantasy upside this coming season hinges on what other moves the Titans make at tight end this offseason, given that Anthony Firkser and MyCole Pruitt are both eligible for free agency.

Titans' Geoff Swaim: Ends season quietly
Rotowire
Swaim recorded one reception on one target for two yards in Sunday's 28-25 win over the Texans.
Swaim continued to make minimal impact on the Titans' offense, as he failed to surpass 10 receiving yards for the fourth consecutive game. While he recorded at least three receptions in seven of his 16 contests, he still managed only 210 yards on 31 catches for the campaign. Meanwhile, the recent re-emergence of Anthony Firkser likely means that Swaim will only take a further step back during the Titans' playoff run. Once the season concludes, Swaim will be a free agent, though he could be a fit to return to Tennessee on a short contract.

Rotowire
Swaim recorded three receptions on three targets for 10 yards in Thursday's 20-17 win over San Francisco.

Titans' Geoff Swaim: One catch in return
Rotowire
Swaim recorded one reception on one target for eight yards in Sunday's 36-13 loss to the Patriots.
Swaim returned from a one-game absence caused by a concussion. He was on the field for 73 percent of the team's offensive snaps but still only saw one target. Prior to missing the team's Week 11 contest, Swaim had recorded four receptions in three consecutive contests, so he could see an uptick in targets when the team retakes the field in Week 14 against Jacksonville.

Titans' Geoff Swaim: Cleared for Week 12
Rotowire
Swaim (concussion) is listed as active Week 12 against New England.
Swaim returned as a full participant in practice Friday, setting the stage for him to gain clearance in Week 12. The tight end hasn't typically been a major part of the Tennessee game plan this season, though Swaim has hauled in exactly four receptions in each of the past three weeks with the receiving corps badly shorthanded. He could be in to see a few more targets than usual this week with A.J. Brown (chest), Julio Jones (hamstring) and Marcus Johnson (hamstring) all on currently residing on injured reserve.

Titans' Geoff Swaim: Questionable for Week 12
Rotowire
Swaim (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against New England.
If active this weekend, Swain would likely lead Tennessee's tight ends in playing time, but should he sit, MyCole Pruitt and Anthony Firkser would continue to see extra snaps, with the latter considered the more prolific pass-catcher.
