Nick Scott Fantasy Stats

Safety Nick Scott has signed a one-year deal with the Carolina Panthers, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. The financial details have not yet been disclosed. Scott spent four seasons with the Rams after they took him in the seventh round of the 2019 NFL Draft, with his best statistical season coming in 2022 -- an 83-tackle campaign with two interceptions in 17 games. His production dipped during a 2023 stint with the Bengals, and a season ago, accrued 26 takedowns in ten games (four starts) with neck and hamstring injuries. The Penn State alum is currently listed behind teammates Tre'von Moehrig and Demani Richardson on the team's unofficial depth chart, but it's worth noting he notched at least five tackles in five straight outings before picking up the hamstring ailment.

The Carolina Panthers agreed to terms on an undisclosed deal on Friday with former Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals safety Nick Scott, according to a source. Scott was the Rams' seventh-round selection (243rd overall) in 2019 out of Penn State. The 28-year-old defensive back spent the first four seasons of his NFL career with the Rams before spending last season with the Bengals. In his five years in the league, Scott has racked up 214 tackles (136 solo), four interceptions, nine passes defended, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery in 81 games (27 starts). He had 57 tackles (35 solo) in 17 games played (10 starts) for Cincy last year. Scott will compete for a reserve role in Carolina's secondary in training camp this summer.

Cincinnati Bengals safety Nick Scott (concussion) has been downgraded to out for the remainder of Week 2 versus the Baltimore Ravens. The 28-year-old had logged nine tackles prior to exiting Sunday's contest. Jordan Battle should see more snaps at strong safety until Scott is able to return.

Cincinnati Bengals safety Nick Scott (bicep, shoulder) is nearly fully healthy. The 27-year-old inked a three-year, $12 million contract with the Bengals during the offseason after spending his entire career with the Rams. During his stint in LA, he totaled 158 tackles and four sacks. Unfortunately, he landed on injured reserve to end his final year with the Rams because of a torn labrum and bicep. In the meantime, Scott will continue to rehab, although there's a good chance he'll be ready for training camp.

Free-agent safety Nick Scott agreed to a three-year, $12 million contract with the Cincinnati Bengals. The 27-year-old has played his entire career with the Rams, amassing 158 total tackles and four interceptions (64 games). Los Angeles obviously wanted to keep him. However, he'll instead be playing for the team that lost to the Rams in Super Bowl LVI. With Jessie Bates III leaving for Atlanta via free agency, Cincinnati added Scott to fill the massive void. He's coming off a career year, so he should be up to the task.
