Scott is back in playing shape after rehabbing a partial meniscus tear he sustained before the start of the regular season, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports. Scott's first stop as he searches for a new opportunity will be New Orleans, where he has an upcoming workout. With Kendre Miller (hamstring) recently having been sent to injured reserve, it makes sense that the Saints are exploring their options at running back.

Back to full health
Scott is back in playing shape after rehabbing a partial meniscus tear he sustained before the start of the regular season, Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reports. Scott's first stop as he searches for a new opportunity will be New Orleans, where he has an upcoming workout. With Kendre Miller (hamstring) recently having been sent to injured reserve, it makes sense that the Saints are exploring their options at running back.
Cut from practice squad
The Steelers released Scott (undisclosed) from their practice squad with an injury settlement Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Scott spent two weeks with Pittsburgh after he failed to earn a 53-man roster spot with the Rams out of training camp. The veteran running back will look for an opportunity elsewhere once healthy.
Dealing with injury
Scott (undisclosed) was placed on the Steelers' practice squad injured list Wednesday. Scott signed with Pittsburgh's practice squad Friday after being waived by the Rams. It's not clear what the injury is or how much time he could miss, but his move to the injured list will force him to miss at least four weeks before he's eligible to return to practice.
Goes to Pittsburgh's practice squad
The Steelers signed Scott to their practice squad Friday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports. Scott spent the preseason with the Rams and totaled a team-leading 157 rushing yards on 36 carries while adding 10 yards on three catches across three exhibition contests. However, the veteran ball carrier was released Sunday, and he'll now add to Pittsburgh's organizational depth at running back. Scott has extensive NFL experience, totaling 1,295 career rushing yards with 16 touchdowns on 302 carries along with 71 receptions for 566 yards and another touchdown over 75 regular-season games with Philadelphia covering six seasons.
Let go by Rams
The Rams released Scott on Sunday, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports. Scott signed with the Rams in April after spending the first six years of his career in Philadelphia where he primarily played as a third-down back. The 29-year-old's playing time hit a career low during his final campaign with the Eagles, tallying just 20 carries for 86 yards across 15 regular-season appearances. He also dealt with a minor leg injury this preseason, though he had strong showings in all three of the Rams' preseason contests. Nevertheless, it appears he was left on the outside looking in, as according to Schultz, the Rams plan to stick with three running backs for regular season. This should leave Ronnie Rivers and Zach Evans as the likely candidates to back up Kyren Williams and Blake Corum. Scott should now look to land as a backup running back elsewhere ahead of the regular season.
Back in action
Scott (leg) carried the ball 11 times for 32 yards in Saturday's preseason finale against the Texans. Scott picked up a leg contusion in last week's exhibition win over the Chargers, but he wound up missing no game time to the minor setback. The veteran backup has rushed for 155 yards on 37 carries in three games this preseason. Scott is looking to make the team as a depth option behind starter Kyren Williams this upcoming season.
Dealing with minor leg injury
Head coach Sean McVay told reporters Thursday that Scott is dealing with a "little bit of a leg contusion," Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports. The injury doesn't appear to be serious, with McVay relaying that Scott is set to receive "a big workload" in Saturday's preseason finale against Houston. Scott signed a one-year contract with the Rams in April after spending the first six years of his NFL career with the Eagles. The 2018 sixth-round pick is currently pencilled in as the Rams' fourth running back on the depth chart behind Kyren Williams, rookie Blake Corum an Ronnie Rivers.
Strong showing in preseason win
Scott took 10 carries for 55 yards in Saturday's preseason tilt against the Chargers. Scott was the second back to receive a touch behind Zack Evans (16-62-0), but both backs were mixed in early in Saturday's exhibition win. The Rams are holding out the dynamic backs sitting atop the RB depth chart along with Ronnie Rivers this preseason, which is why Scott and Evans have been getting so much run. The long-time Eagle could find himself in a similar backup/special teams role this season, assuming he makes the 53-man roster with his new club.
Big workload in preseason opener
Scott carried the ball 15 times for 68 yards and caught all three of his targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 13-12 preseason win over the Cowboys. He also returned one kickoff for 23 yards. The veteran running back got the start for the Rams and played through the third quarter, leading the team in rushing in the process. Scott's big workload came with Kyren Williams, rookie Blake Corum and even Ronnie Rivers sitting out, however, suggesting that the former Eagle isn't headed for a significant role in the Rams backfield this season barring a rash of injuries.
