Scott was originally drafted by the Saints in 2018 and was signed off the practice squad by Philadelphia later that season. The Eagles promoted Scott to the active roster in 2019, finishing that season with 449 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns while backing up Miles Sanders.

With the Eagles signing star RB Saquon Barkley in free agency and drafting Clemson standout Will Shipley, Scott no longer had a role with the offense and signed elsewhere.

Scott will be remembered amongst Eagles fans for his performances against the Giants — 11 of his 17 career touchdowns came against the NFC East rivals, earning him the ‘Giant Killer’ moniker.

Philadelphia will visit Scott in 2024 when the Eagles travel to SoFi Stadium for a regular season matchup against the Rams.

BOSTON SCOTT COMES THROUGH.

The @Eagles take the lead with 40 seconds left!
