  • 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: Inactive Sunday

    Scott (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    The safety was activated from injured reserve Friday, but he will now miss his seventh straight game. Scott played a third safety role alongside Xavier Woods and Jordan Fuller when he was healthy, recording 28 tackles (15 solo) and two pass breakups in seven contests. Demani Richardson, Lonnie Johnson and Sam Franklin are the next available safeties with Scott out.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Officially questionable for Week 15

    Scott (hamstring), who currently remains on IR, is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.

    Scott managed another full practice Friday, which bodes well for his chances of retaking the field Sunday versus Dallas. In order to play Week 15, though, the Panthers will have to officially activate Scott from IR to the 53-man roster by Saturday afternoon.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Activated from injured reserve

    The Panthers activated Scott (hamstring) from injured reserve Friday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Scott is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Cowboys, but this would seem to pave the way for him to play. The veteran safety has missed the last six games. If active for Sunday, expect him to slide back in as the third safety alongside Xavier Woods and Jordan Fuller.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Won't be activated off IR

    Scott (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Eagles, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Scott practiced in full Wednesday and Thursday, but he was listed as a DNP in Friday's session due to his hamstring injury and a personal matter. It appears he hasn't progressed enough in his recovery to return for Week 14, and his next opportunity to play will be Week 15 against the Cowboys on Sunday, Dec. 15.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Questionable for Week 14

    Scott (hamstring/personal) did not practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.

    Scott opened the week with consecutive full practices, so Friday's absence was more likely due to a personal matter rather than an aggravation of his hamstring injury. Scott has been sidelined for the Panthers' last five games due to his hamstring injury, but it appears he is on track to play in Week 14, though he'll need to be activated off injured reserve first. In the seven games prior to his injury, Scott logged 28 tackles (15 solo) and two pass defenses.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Ruled out for Week 13

    Scott (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Sheena Quick of Fox Sports Radio 1340 reports.

    Despite logging a full practice Friday, Scott will remain on injured reserve and miss his fifth straight game due to a hamstring injury. Given his ability to practice in full, Scott has a good chance to return for the Panthers' Week 14 clash against the Eagles on Sunday, Dec. 8.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Could return Sunday

    Scott (hamstring) is questionable to suit up in Sunday's Week 13 battle against the Buccaneers.

    Scott was placed on injured reserve Oct. 26 and since has missed the required four games. He was designated to return Wednesday and began the week with a pair of limited practices before logging a full session Friday. If Scott is to return to action Sunday, the Panthers will need to officially activate him by 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Gets clearance to practice again

    Carolina designated Scott (hamstring) for return to practice from its injured reserve list Wednesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Scott has spent Carolina's last four games on injured reserve due to a lingering hamstring issue, but it now appears he could be on track to return soon. The Panthers will have 21 days to officially activate him before they'd be required to place him back on injured reserve for the rest of the season.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Lands on injured reserve

    The Panthers placed Scott (hamstring) on injured reserve Saturday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    Scott will have to sit out at least Carolina's next four games as he works his way back from a hamstring injury sustained Week 7 versus Washington. With Jordan Fuller (hamstring) not yet ready to come off IR and Jammie Robinson (knee) ruled out for Week 8, the Panthers' safety corps will be deeply depleted versus Denver on Sunday.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Won't play Sunday

    Scott (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos.

    Scott played through his hamstring issue in the Panthers' Week 7 loss to the Commanders, recording six total tackles across 68 total snaps (63 defensive and five on special teams). However, it appears he worsened his injury last week, as he was unable to practice all week and has now been ruled out for Sunday's contest. Expect Lonnie Johnson and Demani Richardson to see increased work in Carolina's secondary in Scott's stead.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Stays on sidelines

    Scott (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday.

    Scott played through the injury in Week 7's loss to the Commanders, so unless he aggravated the injury despite playing 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps, he'll likely be okay for Week 8. Further clarity on his status for Sunday's game against the Broncos will likely come Thursday or Friday.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Ready to face Washington

    Scott (hamstring) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

    Scott was limited in all three official practice sessions this week, but that may in part have been due to load management, as he's coming off three consecutive games having played 100 percent of defensive snaps. As long as his hamstring isn't hampering him, Scott will again be in line to handle an every-down role Sunday on the road against Washington.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Picks up hamstring injury

    Scott (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Scott likely sustained a hamstring injury in the Panthers' Week 6 loss to the Falcons, despite playing 100-percent of the team's defensive snaps and recording five total tackles. The first-year Panther's participation Thursday and Friday will likely be the best indicator of whether he can play through the issue in Carolina's Week 7 matchup against the Commanders.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Ready to suit up vs. Chicago

    Scott (shoulder) practiced in a limited capacity Friday and does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Bears, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Scott played 100 percent of defensive snaps during Carolina's loss to Cincinnati in Week 4 despite entering the contest with a quadriceps issue, and he's now slated to play through a shoulder injury versus Chicago. As long as Scott continues to handle an every-down role, he figures to remain a viable flex fantasy option in IDP formats.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Dealing with shoulder issue

    Scott (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    The first-year Panther played through a quadriceps injury during Carolina's Week 4 loss to the Bengals, but it now appears he's dealing with a different issue. Scott's practice participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of his potential availability in Week 5, as the Panthers travel to Chicago.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Cleared to play versus Cincy

    Scott (quadriceps) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Bengals and is expected to play, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Scott was on the injury report as limited earlier in the week, but he's been cleared to play in what is a revenge game for the veteran safety after he spent 2023 with the Bengals. On top of that, Scott is expected to take over as a starter for Carolina following Jordan Fuller's (hamstring) placement on injured reserve this week. Scott has six tackles (four solo) through three games.

  • Panthers' Nick Scott: Limited Wednesday

    Scott (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    The 29-year-old was expected to take over Carolina's top strong safety role after Jordan Fuller (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, but it now appears Scott is dealing with an injury of his own. Scott's practice participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of his availability for Week 4, as the Panthers host the Bengals.

  • 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.
