Scott signed a two-year, $4 million deal with the Chargers on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Scott will return to Los Angeles, where he averaged 43.6 yards per punt last season. The 27-year-old is currently the only punter on the roster, so for the time being, Scott is slated to head into next season as the unquestioned starter.
Scott (illness) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
Scott joined the Jaguars when Logan Cooke (knee) landed on injured reserve in late December, and he punted in one game before moving to the COVID-19 list. Scott will become an unrestricted free agent at the start of the new league year in March.

Jaguars' JK Scott: Hits COVID list
Rotowire
The Jaguars placed Scott (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.
Scott landed on the COVID list due to a positive test, per Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston. The punter will need to fully clear the health and safety protocols before returning to team facilities, putting his status in question for Sunday's finale against the Colts.
Scott served as the Packers' punter for three seasons after being selected by the team in the fifth round of the 2018 draft, but he finished a pedestrian 18th in yards per punt and just 28th in net yards per punt a season ago, so Green Bay decided to make a switch at the position. Corey Bojorquez will replace Scott as the Packers' punter moving forward.
Scott (personal) is active for Sunday's game at Indianapolis.
The 25-year-old was added to the injury report Saturday as he didn't travel with the team due to a personal issue, but he traveled separately and is cleared to play at Indianapolis. Scott will handle punting duties for the Packers, per usual.
