Boston Scott: Let go by Rams
The Rams released Boston 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 the 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 reserve running back elsewhere ahead of the regular season.

Head coach Sean McVay told reporters Thursday that Boston 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 Los Angeles 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 and Ronnie Rivers.

Rams' Boston Scott: Strong showing in preseason win
Boston 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 Zach Evans (16-62-0), but both backs were mixed in early in Saturday's exhibition win. The Los Angeles 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.

He also returned one kickoff for 23 yards.The veteran running back got the start for the Los Angeles 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.

Rams' Boston Scott: Fresh start in L.A.
Boston Scott agreed to terms on a one-year contract with the Los Angeles Rams on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Scott spent his first six seasons in Philadelphia, but he will now get a fresh start in Los Angeles. While he was never a major part of the Eagles' offense during his tenure, he saw his role as a third-down back shrink during the 2023 campaign. The 29-year-old will presumably be behind Kyren Williams and rookie Blake Corum on the Rams' depth chart, and Scott will compete with Ronnie Rivers and Zach Evans for the No. 3 role.

Eagles' Boston Scott: Role shrinks in sixth season
Boston Scott didn't play a very important role for the Philadelphia Eagles this season, finishing with 20 carries for 86 yards and adding four catches for 52 yards through the air over 15 regular-season games.Scott hasn't been a major part of the Eagles' offense at any point in his six-year career, but he'd managed to run for at least 217 yards in each of the previous four years, so his latest numbers represent a big step back. He also failed to reach the end zone for the first time since his two-game debut back in 2018. It's hard to envision the Eagles suddenly deciding to feature him more often next season.
