News

  • Dominant vs. Rams

    Scott totaled nine tackles (five solo) and an interception during Carolina's win over the Rams on Sunday.

    Analysis: Scott played every defensive snap for the Panthers and recorded the second-most tackles on the team behind Lathan Ransom's 11 (two solo). Scott also snagged his first interception of the season, picking off Matthew Stafford in the end zone during the first half. The 30-year-old will look to build on this strong performance once the team returns from its upcoming bye week.

    Scott recorded eight tackles (two solo) in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Falcons.

    Analysis: Scott had one of his most productive games of the season, matching his season-high in tackles. Only two were solo, but Scott has been a reliable contributor all season and is pacing toward setting a new career high in tackles and potentially in defensive snaps.

  • Good to go vs. Green Bay

    Scott (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Packers, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Scott was working through a groin issue during Week 9 prep, but the seventh-year safety has been cleared to play against Green Bay. The 2019 seventh-rounder has accumulated 41 tackles (25 solo) and two pass defenses through the first eight games of the regular season.

  • Questionable for Week 9

    Scott (groin) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers.

    Analysis: Scott went DNP-limited-full in practice this week, putting him on track to play Sunday. The 30-year-old safety has started all eight games this season, logging 41 tackles (25 solo) and two pass breakups on 97 percent of the defensive snaps.

  • Records limited practice Thursday

    Scott (groin) was a limited practice participant Thursday.

    Analysis: After Scott missed practice entirely Wednesday, his limited participation Thursday was a step in the right direction. The veteran safety may need to log a full session Friday, however, to avoid entering the weekend with an injury designation. Scott has started every game for the Panthers so far this season.

  • Tending to groin injury

    Scott did not participate in Wednesday's practice due to a groin injury.

    Analysis: Scott recorded a season-high eight tackles (five solo) during the Panthers' Week 8 loss to the Bills while playing 62 of 63 defensive snaps. He likely sustained his groin injury at some point during the Week 8 loss, but he'll have two more opportunities to return to practice and avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Packers.

  • Second-leading tackler in loss

    Scott tallied eight total tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 40-9 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: The veteran safety from Penn State had his most productive game of the season in the Week 8 loss, finishing with the second-most tackles on Carolina's defense. Scott has now started all eight of the Panthers' games thus far, recording 41 total tackles and two passes defended.

  • Returning to Carolina

    Scott and the Panthers have agreed upon a one-year contract, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Scott struggled in his first season with Carolina after signing a one-year deal last March, logging 30 tackles -- his fewest since 2020 -- and two defensed passes over 10 games. Part of the reason for his reduced numbers was injuries, as the Penn State product dealt with multiple issues that collectively caused him to miss seven games. Scott made four starts early in the campaign for the Panthers last year, but he finished the campaign playing exclusively on special teams. With Carolina's…read more

  • Struggles in Carolina

    Scott recorded 30 total tackles and two passes defended across 10 games in 2024.

    Analysis: Scott inked a one-year, $1.3 million deal with the Panthers this past offseason after posting 57 total tackles in 17 games with the Bengals in 2023. The 29-year-old endured a tough season in Carolina, dealing with hamstring, quadriceps and shoulder injuries that limited him to 10 appearances. Primarily serving as one of the Panthers' top reserve safeties, he started just four games in place of the injured Jordan Fuller. Scott tallied 22 total tackles and one pass defended during those four…read more

  • Past hamstring issue

    Scott (hamstring) was left off the Panthers' injury report Wednesday.

    Analysis: Scott was inactive for the Panthers' Week 15 loss to the Cowboys despite being activated from injured reserve Friday. He's missed Carolina's last seven games due to a hamstring injury sustained in a Week 7 loss to the Commanders, but his omission from Wednesday's injury report suggests he's now recovered from the issue. With Scott back at full health, he's expected to serve as the Panthers' top reserve safety in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

  • Inactive Sunday

    Scott (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: The safety was activated from injured reserve Friday, but he will now miss his seventh straight game. Scott played a third safety role alongside Xavier Woods and Jordan Fuller when he was healthy, recording 28 tackles (15 solo) and two pass breakups in seven contests. Demani Richardson, Lonnie Johnson and Sam Franklin are the next available safeties with Scott out.

  • Activated from injured reserve

    The Panthers activated Scott (hamstring) from injured reserve Friday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Scott is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys, but this would seem to pave the way for him to play. The veteran safety has missed the last six games. If active for Sunday, expect him to slide back in as the third safety alongside Xavier Woods and Jordan Fuller.

  • Officially questionable for Week 15

    Scott (hamstring), who currently remains on IR, is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Analysis: Scott managed another full practice Friday, which bodes well for his chances of retaking the field Sunday versus Dallas. In order to play Week 15, though, the Panthers will have to officially activate Scott from IR to the 53-man roster by Saturday afternoon.

  • Won't be activated off IR

    Scott (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Eagles, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Scott practiced in full Wednesday and Thursday, but he was listed as a DNP in Friday's session due to his hamstring injury and a personal matter. It appears he hasn't progressed enough in his recovery to return for Week 14, and his next opportunity to play will be Week 15 against the Cowboys on Sunday, Dec. 15.

  • Questionable for Week 14

    Scott (hamstring/personal) did not practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.

    Analysis: Scott opened the week with consecutive full practices, so Friday's absence was more likely due to a personal matter rather than an aggravation of his hamstring injury. Scott has been sidelined for the Panthers' last five games due to his hamstring injury, but it appears he is on track to play in Week 14, though he'll need to be activated off injured reserve first. In the seven games prior to his injury, Scott logged 28 tackles (15 solo) and two pass defenses.

  • Ruled out for Week 13

    Scott (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.

    Analysis: Despite logging a full practice Friday, Scott will remain on injured reserve and miss his fifth straight game due to a hamstring injury. Given his ability to practice in full, Scott has a good chance to return for the Panthers' Week 14 clash against the Eagles on Sunday, Dec. 8.

  • Could return Sunday

    Scott (hamstring) is questionable to suit up in Sunday's Week 13 battle against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Scott was placed on injured reserve Oct. 26 and since has missed the required four games. He was designated to return Wednesday and began the week with a pair of limited practices before logging a full session Friday. If Scott is to return to action Sunday, the Panthers will need to officially activate him by 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday.

  • Gets clearance to practice again

    Carolina designated Scott (hamstring) for return to practice from its injured reserve list Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Scott has spent Carolina's last four games on injured reserve due to a lingering hamstring issue, but it now appears he could be on track to return soon. The Panthers will have 21 days to officially activate him before they'd be required to place him back on injured reserve for the rest of the season.

  • Lands on injured reserve

    The Panthers placed Scott (hamstring) on injured reserve Saturday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Scott will have to sit out at least Carolina's next four games as he works his way back from a hamstring injury sustained Week 7 versus Washington. With Jordan Fuller (hamstring) not yet ready to come off IR and Jammie Robinson (knee) ruled out for Week 8, the Panthers' safety corps will be deeply depleted versus Denver on Sunday.

  • Won't play Sunday

    Scott (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos.

    Analysis: Scott played through his hamstring issue in the Panthers' Week 7 loss to the Commanders, recording six total tackles across 68 total snaps (63 defensive and five on special teams). However, it appears he worsened his injury last week, as he was unable to practice all week and has now been ruled out for Sunday's contest. Expect Lonnie Johnson and Demani Richardson to see increased work in Carolina's secondary in Scott's stead.

  • Stays on sidelines

    Scott (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Scott played through the injury in Week 7's loss to the Commanders, so unless he aggravated the injury despite playing 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps, he'll likely be okay for Week 8. Further clarity on his status for Sunday's game against the Broncos will likely come Thursday or Friday.

  • Ready to face Washington

    Scott (hamstring) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

    Analysis: Scott was limited in all three official practice sessions this week, but that may in part have been due to load management, as he's coming off three consecutive games having played 100 percent of defensive snaps. As long as his hamstring isn't hampering him, Scott will again be in line to handle an every-down role Sunday on the road against Washington.

  • Picks up hamstring injury

    Scott (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Scott likely sustained a hamstring injury in the Panthers' Week 6 loss to the Falcons, despite playing 100-percent of the team's defensive snaps and recording five total tackles. The first-year Panther's participation Thursday and Friday will likely be the best indicator of whether he can play through the issue in Carolina's Week 7 matchup against the Commanders.

  • Ready to suit up vs. Chicago

    Scott (shoulder) practiced in a limited capacity Friday and does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Bears, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Scott played 100 percent of defensive snaps during Carolina's loss to Cincinnati in Week 4 despite entering the contest with a quadriceps issue, and he's now slated to play through a shoulder injury versus Chicago. As long as Scott continues to handle an every-down role, he figures to remain a viable flex fantasy option in IDP formats.

    Scott (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: The first-year Panther played through a quadriceps injury during Carolina's Week 4 loss to the Bengals, but it now appears he's dealing with a different issue. Scott's practice participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of his potential availability in Week 5, as the Panthers travel to Chicago.

  • Cleared to play versus Cincy

    Scott (quadriceps) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bengals and is expected to play, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Scott was on the injury report as limited earlier in the week, but he's been cleared to play in what is a revenge game for the veteran safety after he spent 2023 with the Bengals. On top of that, Scott is expected to take over as a starter for Carolina following Jordan Fuller's (hamstring) placement on injured reserve this week. Scott has six tackles (four solo) through three games.

    Scott (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old was expected to take over Carolina's top strong safety role after Jordan Fuller (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, but it now appears Scott is dealing with an injury of his own. Scott's practice participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of his availability for Week 4, as the Panthers host the Bengals.

  • Moves into starting role

    Scott is likely to take over as a starting safety for the Panthers beginning with Sunday's game against the Bengals after Carolina placed Jordan Fuller (hamstring) on injured reserve Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Scott played a significant role in the Bengals secondary last season and the two seasons prior to that with the Rams, so he's no stranger to starting. With Fuller guaranteed to miss at least the next four games, Scott will should enjoy a month-long run as a starter. After logging just eight snaps on defense over the first two weeks of the season while Fuller and fellow safety Xavier Woods were healthy, Scott played 34 snaps in the Week 3 win over the Raiders, finishing with six tackles.

  • Headed to Carolina

    The Panthers signed Scott on Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The veteran safety spent last season with Cincinnati after playing the first four years of his career with the Rams, and he's now headed to Carolina. During the Bengals' 2023 campaign, Scott tallied 57 total tackles, including one tackle for loss, across 17 outings. Carolina has now added two safeties in Scott and Jordan Fuller this offseason, and the former is expected to compete for a depth role in the Panthers' secondary.

  • Done in Cincy after one year

    Scott will be released by the Bengals, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Scott signed a three-year contract with the Bengals in the 2023 offseason but lost his starting strong safety role to Jordan Battle during the season. Rather than keep Scott on as a backup, the Bengals have decided to release the former Rams safety with two years left on his deal. After compiling 190 tackles and four interceptions between the Rams and Bengals over the past three seasons, Scott will likely receive some interest as a free agent.

  • Finishes 2023 in depth role

    Scott racked up 57 tackles (35 solo) and one fumble recovery across 17 regular-season appearances with the Bengals in 2023.

    Analysis: Scott began the first season of his three-year contract with Cincinnati in a starting role, but by Week 11 he was clearly replaced by 2023 third-round pick Jordan Battle at strong safety. The Bengals have a potential 'out' in Scott's contract for only $2 million in dead money this offseason, so it wouldn't be surprising if he ends up having to search for a role elsewhere.

    Scott exited the Bengals' 27-24 loss to the Ravens on Sunday with a concussion and did not return.

    Analysis: The safety recorded nine tackles before leaving the game. Scott's status for Week 3 is uncertain as he goes through the five-step concussion protocol. The fifth-year pro has 20 tackles through two contests.

    Scott has been declared out for the rest of Sunday's game against Baltimore due to a concussion.

    Analysis: Scott will now have to enter the league's five-step concussion protocols, leaving his status for Week 3 against the Rams in question. Jordan Battle should continue to fill in at strong safety while Scott is sidelined.

  • Getting looked at

    Scott is being evaluated for a concussion during Sunday's game against the Ravens.

    Analysis: Scott could return to the game if he gets the all clear, but if he did indeed suffer a concussion, he'll of course not be able to get back on the field. While he's sidelined, Jordan Battle should handle the strong safety position.

    Scott agreed to a three-year, $12 million contract with the Bengals on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Scott had a career-best season with the Rams in 2022, totaling 86 tackles (56 solo) along with five defensed passes, two interceptions and two forced fumbles. The Penn State product injured his rotator cuff near the end of the campaign and was subsequently placed on IR, but he should be good to go for the start of training camp. Scott will likely join Dax Hill as the Bengals' starting safeties next season.

The 27-year-old will finish the 2022 campaign with a career-high 86 tackles while also recording five pass deflections, two interceptions and two forced fumbles over 16 contests.

    Scott (shoulder) logged a limited practice Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Scott managed to practice fully Wednesday but was unable to Thursday as his shoulder injury continued to limit him.

    Analysis: Scott's tackle total tied his high mark in 2022, matching the mark he produced Week 10 against Arizona.

  • Forces fumble in loss

    Scott recorded nine tackles (eight solo) and a forced fumble during Sunday's 27-17 defeat against the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Scott tied linebacker Bobby Wagner as the team's second-leading tackler, as these two were the only Rams defenders to play every defensive snap. The safety also knocked loose a fumble on tight end Trey McBride, though the ball was ultimately recovered by Arizona. Scott has now played 100 percent of Los Angeles' defensive snaps in six of nine games this season, and he'll continue to play a prominent role this coming Sunday against New Orleans.

  • Season-high eight total stops

    Scott tallied eight tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 31-14 defeat versus the 49ers.

    Analysis: Scott finished as the Rams' second-leading tackler behind outside linebacker Leonard Floyd while also logging his third pass defended of the season Sunday. The free safety has played every defensive snap over the past three contests, and he is on pace to set career highs in tackles and passes defended after stepping into a starting role this season.

  • Logs first pick of the season

    Scott recorded two tackles (one solo) and an interception in Sunday's 24-10 win against the Panthers.

    Analysis: Any fleeting hope of a comeback by the Panthers was ended by the talented safety, as a P.J. Walker pass was deflected by Ernest Jones and caught by a diving Scott in the end zone to seal the victory for the Rams. In just six games, Scott has nearly matched his snap count from a full 17-game slate in 2021, and he should continue to get plenty of opportunities to produce alongside Taylor Rapp with Jordan Fuller (hamstring) out until mid-November.

    Analysis: Scott was able to record the Rams' second forced fumble of the contest late in the fourth quarter, stripping Zack Moss with the game already out of reach. Scott was on field for 52 of the Rams' 59 defensive snaps, an encouraging number as the Rams welcome the Falcons to town in Week 2.

    Analysis: Scott suffered a broken thumb in the Rams' win over the Ravens in Week 17. It was reported Monday that Scott could receive surgery on the thumb and play with a cast Sunday against the 49ers. After back-to-back limited practices, it would seem Scott may be trending in the right direction, especially if he can get in a full practice Friday.

  • Breaks thumb

    Scott suffered a broken thumb in the Rams' win over the Ravens on Sunday according to head coach Sean McVay, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

    Analysis: Scott could still play this week against the 49ers, as McVay added that the safety will undergo surgery Monday and could play in a cast, according to Jackson's report. If Scott can't go Sunday, Antoine Brooks may see extra opportunity in a depth role at safety.

  • Picks off pass during Week 5

    Nick registered five tackles, one pass deflection and one interception during Thursday's 26-17 win over the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Thursday's outing was Scott's best statistical game of the season by far, but he only played 17 defensive snaps. The 26-year-old safety's production will continue to be limited as long as he remains behind Taylor Rapp and Jordan Fuller on the depth chart.
