- 39th percentile collegiate breakout age

Scouting report:

Scott’s burst and short-area quickness pop immediately on film. He’s immediate lightning with the ball in his hands. Scott has easy change of direction ability with little to no speed sacrificed in the process.
He flashes a deep and varied release package at the line. He can win with speed or precision footwork. Scott varies his tempo with his releases and his route pacing. He can win from the outside (96.2% of his snaps in college as a perimeter receiver).
Scott has fantastic ball tracking on deep routes. He saved his quarterback more than a few times by adjusting to underthrown balls. Scott plays bigger than his size. His catch radius is larger than his frame would suggest because of his strong hands and high-pointing skills.

Player Comp: Darnell Mooney

Dynasty Outlook: The selection of Scott in the fourth round by Ryan Poles was with an eye toward the future. Chicago has a fully stocked starting lineup of wide receivers, but Chase Claypool and Darnell Mooney are unrestricted free agents after this season. Scott won’t be a main contributor this season unless injury strikes, but he could move into the starting lineup in 2024. Scott is a final-round dart/taxi squad stash.
