  • Bengals' Nick Scott: Signs with Cincinnati

    Scott agreed to a three-year, $12 million contract with the Bengals on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Scott had a career-best season with the Rams in 2022, totaling 86 tackles (56 solo) along with five defensed passes, two interceptions and two forced fumbles. The Penn State product injured his rotator cuff near the end of the campaign and was subsequently placed on IR, but he should be good to go for the start of training camp. Scott will likely join Dax Hill as the Bengals' starting safeties next season.

  • Rams' Nick Scott: Logs limited practice Thursday

    Scott (shoulder) logged a limited practice Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports. Scott managed to practice fully Wednesday but was unable to Thursday as his shoulder injury continued to limit him. If the safety is able to log a full practice again Friday, he should be able to suit up against the Seahawks on Sunday. Expect Quentin Lake to start in relief of Scott if he's unavailable.

    Scott (shoulder) is expected to play Sunday against the Seahawks according to head coach Sean McVay, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports. Scott suffered the injury in Sunday's loss to the Chargers, but it appears he's not expected to miss any time.

  • Rams' Nick Scott: Leads Rams with nine total stops

  • Rams' Nick Scott: Logs first pick of the season

    Scott recorded two tackles (one solo) and an interception in Sunday's 24-10 win against the Panthers. Any fleeting hope of a comeback by the Panthers was ended by the talented safety, as a P.J. Walker pass was deflected by Ernest Jones and caught by a diving Scott in the end zone to seal the victory for the Rams. In just six games, Scott has nearly matched his snap count from a full 17-game slate in 2021, and he should continue to get plenty of opportunities to produce alongside Taylor Rapp with Jordan Fuller (hamstring) out until mid-November.

  • Rams' Nick Scott: Breaks thumb

    Scott suffered a broken thumb in the Rams' win over the Ravens on Sunday according to head coach Sean McVay, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports. Scott could still play this week against the 49ers, as McVay added that the safety will undergo surgery Monday and could play in a cast, according to Jackson's report. If Scott can't go Sunday, Antoine Brooks may see extra opportunity in a depth role at safety.

    Nick registered five tackles, one pass deflection and one interception during Thursday's 26-17 win over the Seahawks. Thursday's outing was Scott's best statistical game of the season by far, but he only played 17 defensive snaps.

  • Rams' Nick Scott: Moves to COVID list

    Scott (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.
