Scott darted for 50 yards on seven carries and helped set up a 94-yard drive, positioning him as a real RB3 candidate behind Mason and Jordan Mason. His big-play ability adds a compelling layer to Minnesota’s backfield depth.

Scott emerged as Minnesota’s backfield spark, carrying seven times for 40 yards and helping push a 94-yard drive in the second quarter. His burst and vision offered a glimpse at a potential complement to Mason, providing Vikings fantasy rosters with depth options in the backfield and a fallback if the primary RBs struggle.

Zavier Scott was signed by the Vikings after they waived seventh-round pick DeWayne McBride. Previously on the Colts' practice squad, Scott's addition aligns with the team's efforts to bolster their roster and find viable contributors as they navigate roster changes.
