Should You Start or Roster Zavier Scott?
A 2023 UDFA out of Maine, Scott carved out a situational role in Minnesota during 2025 but the numbers cap his ceiling. Across 11 games on a thin 10.2 percent snap share he turned 32 carries into just 114 yards, a punchless 3.56 per attempt with a -0.203 EPA per play and a longest run of only 11 yards. His value tilts to the passing game: 16 targets, 14 catches for 98 yards and a touchdown, a healthy 1.53 yards per route run and 105 yards after the catch on a 3.4 percent target share. Two fumbles on limited touches are a red flag for a back fighting for snaps.
The 25.2 fantasy points and rank of 76 reflect a deep-bench role, not a usable one. Behind a committee of higher-pedigree options, Scott profiles as a passing-down change-of-pace at best, and his sub-4.0 yards per carry gives him no early-down equity. The receiving chops keep him alive in deeper dynasty PPR formats, but for 2026 redraft he is a waiver-wire afterthought barring an injury bump.
