BOSTON SCOTT NEWS

Tests positive for virus The Eagles placed Scott on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.

Impact According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, Scott was one of 12 Eagles placed on the list Monday after all tested positive. In addition to Scott, fellow running back Jordan Howard (illness) landed on the list, leaving rookie Kenneth Gainwell as the only healthy backfield option on the active roster heading into Saturday's regular-season finale versus the Cowboys. Head coach Nick Sirianni already said earlier Monday that lead back Miles Sanders (hand) is expected to miss a second straight game this weekend.

Takes two trips to pay dirt Scott recorded 14 rushes for 47 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 20-16 win over Washington. He added four receptions for 39 yards.

Impact With Miles Sanders (hand) sidelined, Scott out-touched Jordan Howard 18-11. Scott wasn't particularly efficient on the ground, as he was largely shut down aside from a 14-yard rush late in the third quarter. However, he made his mark on the game with two touchdowns, which came from one and two yards, respectively. Scott was also a strong producer as a pass catcher, finishing second on the team in receptions and third in yardage. Pending Sanders' ability to return in Week 18, Scott should maintain a key role in Philadelphia's matchup against Dallas.

Finds end zone in win Scott rushed 12 times for 41 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Giants.

Impact Scott saw just one carry in the first half but took the ball into the end zone from three yards out to break a 3-3 tie early in the third quarter after Jordan Howard had rushed three-straight times. The 26-year-old's final seven totes came with the Eagles in clock-killing mode at the end of the game. However, with Miles Sanders set to miss at least a game with a broken hand and Howard also recovering from a stinger, Scott and Kenneth Gainwell could see a lot more work in Week 17 against the Football Team.

Relegated to special teams Scott played just six snaps on special teams in Tuesday's 27-17 win over the Football Team.

Impact Scott had seen at least 20 snaps on offense from Weeks 7 to 12 but saw just three in Week 13 and played purely special teams with Jordan Howard healthy again in Week 15. It's unlikely things change with Week 16's matchup against the Giants coming just five days later.

COVID concerns, injuries overshadow Washington-Eagles game

Washington has narrowed Philadelphia’s starting quarterback to Jalen Hurts and Gardner Minshew

DECEMBER 16, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Limited playing time Sunday Scott played just three offensive snaps in Sunday's 33-18 win over the Jets.

Impact Scott was unable to practice this week due to a non-COVID illness. Even though Miles Sanders aggravated his ankle injury in the fourth quarter of Sunday's matchup, Scott had minimal playing time against the Jets. The 26-year-old will be able to work on his conditioning during the Eagles' Week 14 bye, but his role for the team's Week 15 matchup against Washington likely depends on whether Sanders and Jordan Howard (knee) are available.

Ready to go Sunday Scott (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Jets.

Impact Scott wasn't able to practice in any capacity this week due to a non-COVID-19-related illness, but the 26-year-old apparently made enough progress in recovery from the ailment over the past 48 hours to gain clearance for Sunday's contest. With quarterback Jalen Hurts (ankle) and running back Jordan Howard (knee) sidelined for Week 13, Scott could take on a slightly larger role than normal as the second option in the Philadelphia ground attack behind starting back Miles Sanders. Scott should also have a role on passing downs along with Kenneth Gainwell, as the Eagles haven't kept Sanders involved as a receiver in his first two games since returning from injured reserve.
