Quick answer
WatchScott had 21 solo tackles in 2026, ranking DB96 through 6 games. From DB35 to DB96 through 6 games is a dip in pace, not a locked finish. Looking at 2026, he's a situational piece unless the role grows. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
