Zavier Scott: Returns to practice squad
Scott reverted to Chicago's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction report.
Scott was elevated as Kyle Monangai was out with a toe injury, but he ended up playing exclusively on special teams, logging three tackles and a forced fumble while in kick and punt coverage. This marked the second straight game that Scott was elevated, and he could play again in Thursday's matchup versus the Patriots if Monangai remains sidelined.

Bears' Zavier Scott: Elevated by Chicago
The Bears elevated Scott from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons.
With Kyle Monangai (toe) still sidelined for Chicago, Scott will join the 53-man roster for the second straight week. He logged just nine snaps on special teams last Sunday against the Packers.

Zavier Scott: Back with practice squad
Scott reverted to the Bears' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Scott was elevated to the active roster to operate as an additional depth option behind D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson in Sunday's 31-7 loss to the Packers. Scott didn't log a snap on offense, and he recorded one tackle while playing nine snaps with the special-teams unit. The running back could garner another elevation in Week 6 against the Falcons if Kyle Monangai (toe) remains unavailable.

Bears' Zavier Scott: Elevated for Week 5
The Bears elevated Scott from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Scott's elevation gives the Bears added backfield depth for Sunday's NFC North tilt against the Packers in the absence of Kyle Monangai (toe). Scott -- who appeared in 16 regular-season games for the Vikings in 2025 -- will operate as Chicago's RB3 behind D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson.

Zavier Scott: Joins Bears' practice squad
Chicago signed Scott to its practice squad Tuesday.
After spending his rookie season playing third fiddle to veteran Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason, Scott was replaced on the Vikings' depth chart by rookie sixth-rounder Demond Claiborne during training camp and cuts. His ability as a receiver could create at least a little fantasy intrigue if he finds his way onto the field with the Bears during the regular season.

Zavier Scott: Waived by Minnesota
Scott was waived by the Vikings on Sunday, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
Scott spent most of his rookie season as the third option on the team's running back depth chart behind Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason. Those two veterans remain in Minnesota, but it looks like rookie fifth-round pick Demond Claiborne has usurped Scott's role as a depth option in Minnesota. The Vikings may be interested in retaining Scott on the practice squad if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Vikings' Zavier Scott: Re-signed by Vikings
Minnesota re-signed Scott on Monday, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.
Scott made his regular-season debut in 2025 and ultimately suited up for 16 contests with the Vikings, totaling 32 carries for 114 yards (3.6 YPC) while adding 14 catches for 98 yards and a score through the air. He also contributed on special teams. Though Minnesota's backfield could undergo significant changes over the course of the offseason, Scott appears solidified as a depth option for the 2026 campaign.

Vikings' Zavier Scott: Inefficient on ground as rookie
Scott concluded the 2025-26 season with 32 carries for 114 yards and no touchdowns along with 14 catches on 16 targets for 98 yards and a touchdown over 16 games.
Scott took on a significant role early in the campaign when starting RB Aaron Jones missed time due to a hamstring injury. While Scott worked behind Jordan Mason and logged double-digit offensive snaps Weeks 3 to 5, he didn't do much with the opportunity, tallying a combined 49 rushing yards on 15 totes. He did add 63 yards on seven receptions during that span, but most of his receiving output came in Week 4, when he posted a 6-43-1 line versus Pittsburgh. Overall, Scott registered a meager 3.6 yards per carry as a rusher, which doesn't exactly inspire confidence in his ability to ascend to a lead back. It's still impressive that Scott was able to see a decent amount of work after going undrafted, and he showed acumen as a pass catcher with 14 grabs on 16 targets, but he figures to remain in a depth role in 2026 if he returns to Minnesota (he'll be a restricted free agent this offseason).

Vikings' Zavier Scott: Limited to special teams Thursday
Scott didn't play a snap on offense in Thursday's 23-10 win over the Lions, though he logged 10 snaps on special teams and made two tackles.
With Jordan Mason (ankle) unable to play Thursday, there was some expectation that Scott could move into the RB2 role. Instead, that assignment went to Ty Chandler, who was just activated from IR on Tuesday and was available for the first time since Week 1. Even as the Vikings went to a run-heavy game plan on Christmas Day, Scott didn't log an offensive snap, with Aaron Jones (18-53-1) and Chandler (7-24-0) handling all of the RB reps. Even if Mason remains out to action for the season finale against the Packers next Sunday, it doesn't look like Scott will be targeted for a big role (unless the out-of-contention Vikings decide to rest vets like Jones and/or Chandler).

Vikings' Zavier Scott: Slated for RB2 duties sans Mason
Scott will serve as the Vikings' RB2 behind Aaron Jones against the Lions on Thursday after Jordan Mason (ankle) was ruled out.
Scott has served mostly on special teams this season, but he did play a larger role on offense from Weeks 3 to 5, which coincided with Jones' absence due to a hamstring injury. With Mason sidelined, Jones and Scott will lead the Vikings' rushing attack Christmas Day, and Ty Chandler is also available to provide depth in the backfield.

Vikings' Zavier Scott: Three touches as Mason goes down
Scott rushed twice for four yards and caught his only target for eight yards in Sunday's 16-13 win over the Giants.
Scott looked poised to work as Minnesota's lead back after both Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason exited due to first-quarter ankle injuries, but Jones returned and handled a workhorse role, finishing with 23 touches to Scott's three. If Jones' injury impacts his availability for Thursday's game against the Lions and Mason remains sidelined, Scott could find himself handling an increased workload.

Vikings' Zavier Scott: No snaps on offense in Week 15
Scott played all three of his snaps on special teams in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Cowboys.
Scott picked up three carries in garbage time of last week's 31-0 win over the Commanders, but the Vikings leaned exclusively on Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason out of the backfield in a more competitive Week 15 contest. Unless one of Jones or Mason misses a game due to injury, Scott is unlikely to have much of a role on offense, if any, over the final three weeks of the season.

Vikings' Zavier Scott: Gets three carries in blowout win
Scott had three carries for 15 yards and one reception for five yards on his lone target in Sunday's 31-0 win over Washington.
Scott had three carries in a second consecutive game, but only because both were blowouts (in opposite directions). He had no carries or targets the four games before, as he's unlikely to see any action on offense if both Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason are healthy.

Vikings' Zavier Scott: Thrust into more prominent role
Scott rushed three times for 17 yards and caught his only target for four yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to Seattle.
Scott was thrust into a more significant role in the second half against the Seahawks after Aaron Jones (shoulder) exited the game and did not return. Scott hadn't garnered a carry since Week 8, and he was able to produce an inspiring 5.7 yards per tote in Week 13. If Jones is forced to miss any action moving forward, Scott will likely operate as the team's primary pass-catching back while in a timeshare with Jordan Mason in Minnesota's backfield.
