To make space on the practice squad, linebacker Michael Barrett was released.

Scott entered the league last year as an undrafted free agent from Missouri State, initially signing with the Kansas City Chiefs. After being waived before the season, he joined the DC Defenders of the United Football League, where he led the team in receiving with 418 yards on 25 catches and three touchdowns.

During his two seasons at Missouri State, Scott recorded 114 receptions for 1,784 yards and 13 touchdowns, earning first-team All-MVFC honors in 2021 and honorable mention in 2022.

Barrett, a rookie from Michigan, was drafted by the Panthers in the seventh round this year and later traded to Seattle last month in exchange for cornerback Michael Jackson.
