  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Past hamstring issue

    Scott (hamstring) was left off the Panthers' injury report Wednesday. Scott was inactive for the Panthers' Week 15 loss to the Cowboys despite being activated from injured reserve Friday. He's missed Carolina's last seven games due to a hamstring injury sustained in a Week 7 loss to the Commanders, but his omission from Wednesday's injury report suggests he's now recovered from the issue. With Scott back at full health, he's expected to serve as the Panthers' top reserve safety in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Moves into starting role

    Scott is likely to take over as a starting safety for the Panthers beginning with Sunday's game against the Bengals after Carolina placed Jordan Fuller (hamstring) on injured reserve Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports. Scott played a significant role in the Bengals secondary last season and the two seasons prior to that with the Rams, so he's no stranger to starting. With Fuller guaranteed to miss at least the next four games, Scott will should enjoy a month-long run as a starter. After logging just eight snaps on defense over the first two weeks of the season while Fuller and fellow safety Xavier Woods were healthy, Scott played 34 snaps in the Week 3 win over the Raiders, finishing with six tackles.

    Scott will be released by the Bengals, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Scott signed a three-year contract with the Bengals in the 2023 offseason but lost his starting strong safety role to Jordan Battle during the season. Rather than keep Scott on as a backup, the Bengals have decided to release the former Rams safety with two years left on his deal. After compiling 190 tackles and four interceptions between the Rams and Bengals over the past three seasons, Scott will likely receive some interest as a free agent.
