Who Should I Start? Boston Scott or Myles Gaskin

Monday, November 4, 12:01 PM

Free-agent running back Boston Scott (knee) is reportedly fully healthy and ready to return to the NFL after suffering a partially torn meniscus in his knee before the start of the regular season, according to sources. The former Philadelphia Eagles RB has been rehabbing the injury the last two months but it now prepared to join a team soon. The 29-year-old was with the Pittsburgh Steelers during training camp but was cut with an injury settlement after injuring his knee. The former sixth-round pick by the New Orleans Saints in 2018 out of Louisiana Tech should latch on somewhere as a change-of-pace option, but he won't necessarily be worth a waiver-wire pickup for RB-needy fantasy managers once he finds a new team. Scott's fantasy value for the rest of 2024 will depend on where he lands. Stay tuned. In 15 games with Philly last year, he had 20 carries for 86 yards and caught four passes for 52 yards.

The Minnesota Vikings released running back Myles Gaskin but have re-signed him to their practice squad. The 27-year-old has spent most of this season on the active roster but offered minimal contributions. He had just 10 scrimmage yards on four touches, plus three kick returns for an additional 60 yards. For obvious reasons, he's off the fantasy radar.
