His signing helped stabilize punting for two years, complementing the team’s coverage, field-position strategy, and the leadership chemistry with Dicker and Harris.

Scott handled Chargers' punting duties in Week 3, delivering seven punts for 304 yards (avg 43.4 yards), four punts inside the 20, and a long of 51, in a road defeat at San Francisco.
