Boston Scott News
Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott (concussion) didn't practice on Saturday. The 27-year-old suffered the injury on Thursday after colliding with a teammate. However, he's not expected to be out long. Scott has been a relatively reliable performer for the team throughout his four years in the league, all in Philly, compiling 992 yards and 13 touchdowns off 228 carries. He's also added 62 catches for 449 yards and another touchdown. Nevertheless, although Scott won't be the primary option out of the backfield this season, he always seems to work his way into the picture. Considering Miles Sanders hasn't stayed healthy over the last two seasons, Scott has streaming potential in all fantasy formats.
The Philadelphia Eagles re-signed running back Boston Scott to a one-year, $1.75 million deal on Friday that is worth up to $2.25 million with incentives, according to a source. Scott will receive $1.1 million guaranteed. The 26-year-old will return to a crowded Eagles backfield that also includes Miles Sanders, Jordan Howard and Kenneth Gainwell. Scott will fit into a complementary role once again and serve as valuable depth at the position. He carried the ball a career-high 87 times last year for 373 yards and seven touchdowns, adding 13 catches on 16 targets for 83 receiving yards. Scott has a nose for the end zone, but unless the Eagles backfield is hit by injuries again, it'll be hard to get behind him as a weekly flex option.
The Philadelphia Eagles aren't tendering restricted free-agent Boston Scott, according to a league source. It means that Scott will be an unrestricted free agent when the new league year begins on Wednesday, although a return to the Eagles is a possibility. The 26-year-old carried the ball a career-high 87 times for 373 yards and a career-high seven rushing touchdowns in 16 games (four starts) last season, adding 13 receptions for 83 yards on 16 targets in the passing game. Scott is likely to have more fantasy appeal elsewhere, as the Eagles already have a crowded backfield with Miles Sanders, Jordan Howard and Kenneth Gainwell.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott provided some fantasy value at various points during the 2021 season. His top performance came in Week 8 against the Detroit Lions as he rushed for 60 yards and two scores on 12 caries while the Eagles routed the Lions 44-6. The Eagles had the NFL's top rushing offense in 2021, averaging 159.7 rushing yards per game. About a third of those yards came from quarterback Jalen Hurts, but the team managed to find a great deal of success through other...
