Bears Sign Scott to Boost Run Game | Minnesota Vikings News

The Chicago Bears are making a bold move by signing Zavier Scott, a 27-year-old running back recently cut by the Minnesota Vikings, to strengthen their run game and weaken NFC North rivalries. Scott, who saw his first NFL action last season with 114 rushing yards and a touchdown on catches, could challenge Roschon Johnson for the third RB spot—especially as Johnson’s concussion history and reduced role make room for fresh legs. With D’Andre Swift and Kyle Monangai sidelined (Monangai recovering from knee surgery), Scott’s versatility and experience could be key. The Vikings opted to keep explosive rookies instead of bringing Scott back, signaling Chicago’s savvy play. This signing adds depth, explosiveness, and a potential spark to an offense focused on establishing a powerful ground game.
