With Darius Slay and James Bradberry in charge of Commanders WRs Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson, Scott, who missed last week’s game in Houston with an ankle injury, will be responsible for keeping Curtis Samuel in check.
Scott started the first two games of his career earlier this season (JAX and AZ) when Maddox was dealing with a different injury.
