Scott remained seated on the painted turf in the end zone and was tended to by the Rams’ medical staff. He did not return to the game. The Rams are notoriously cautious with players sustaining injuries and have not made an official statement on his status.

Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic posted to X that “Boston Scott was briefly down on the field, is now getting up and leaving the field with medical personnel.”

Rams running back Zach Evans was the official starter, playing the Rams’ first offensive play, but Scott played the next two. The injury occurred on the third offensive play.

Scott had three 10-yard runs, the lion’s share of which came on his first nine-yard run. Last week, he had 15 68-yard runs.

Boston Scott was added to the team this year as a free agent.

Scott returned at the start of the second half.

Updates will be added as more information becomes available.
