An undrafted Grambling State product who has carved out an eight-year NFL career as a versatile, reliable offensive line depth piece.

Career highlights
Scott has played for the Chargers, Panthers and Steelers in addition to Washington, appearing in 96 career regular-season games with 26 starts through his eighth season. He has been valued around the league for his ability to play multiple spots along the offensive line.
2025 season recap
Scott made three starts across eight appearances for Washington in 2025, and stepped up in the playoffs to start the NFC Championship Game at right guard, filling in for an injured teammate.
