Boston Scott Fantasy

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott is expected to compete for an offensive role in training camp instead of just competing for a roster spot. Miles Sanders will be the team's lead back in 2020, but even if the team adds a veteran backup, Scott is expected to compete for a role in Philly. The coaching staff truly believes that Scott's production down the stretch last year when Jordan Howard and Darren Sproles were injured wasn't a fluke. The 25-year-old finished with 61 carries for 245 yards (4.0 yards per carry) and five touchdowns on the ground, adding 24 receptions for 204 yards through the air. Scott should have late-round appeal in deep PPR leagues, especially if the Eagles don't add another running back before the season.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott picked up 48 yards in a Wild Card Weekend loss. He ran the ball six times for 25 yards and added three catches for 23 more yards. Scott showed some flashes at the end of this season and should have a more significant role from Week 1 next season. He should a solid late-round PPR option.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott could have tons of value on Wild Card Weekend, but it's wholly dependent on the availability of Miles Sanders (ankle). If Sanders plays and is healthy, Scott will be in only for change-of-pace and occasional passing down situations. If Sanders is limited or unavailable though, Scott will become a near every-down player. He scored three touchdowns in Week 17 after Sanders was forced to leave. DFS players should keep an eye on Eagles practice reports and pick up Scott immediately as soon as anything about Sanders being unavailable comes up.
