It’s the second known bit of interest for Scott since he was pronounced fully recovered from his torn meniscus before the start of the season. The Commanders are acting like a team that might need yet another back to join Chris Rodriguez and Jeremy McNichols as healthy backs on the roster. Wednesday’s injury report will tell us more about Brian Robinson and Austin Ekeler’s status for Week 13.

Scott was released from the Steelers in September and has been working his way back from his injury over the last two months. The veteran running back is now hoping to join a team in the coming days and could have plenty of suitors. Scott caught on with the Eagles in 2018 but didn’t start making an offensive impact until 2019. He’s a versatile weapon out of the backfield who has rushed for over 1,200 yards and 16 touchdowns in limited roles while also racking up 71 receptions for 566 yards and one touchdown. His skillset should have several teams intrigued as he looks to catch on with a team for the second half of the season.

Scott was let go by the Rams during final roster cutdowns and now lands with the Steelers. The veteran running back won’t be threatening for offensive snaps any time soon but could earn a look as a returner if somebody were to miss time with an injury. In addition to Scott, the Steelers also signed wide receivers Ben Skowronek and and Brandon Johnson to the practice squad.

The fabled Giant killer played the first six years of his NFL career in Philadelphia but was largely an afterthought the previous two seasons with D’Andre Swift in town. Scott, a diminutive in stature scat back, has made the largest impact on special teams throughout his career, which is likely why he was brought into the Rams organization on a one-year deal. In other words, he is likely best left on the waiver wire for the time being.
