Nick Scott is officially a Cincinnati Bengal.
He was introduced on Monday after his signing was official. The Bengals will look to turn to him in the secondary as he'll help fill the void left by Jessie Bates III and Vonn Bell who both left in free agency. He'll join forces with Dax Hill who will get his first true taste as a safety in the NFL.
Much like the Bengals did with Bell, the Bengals waited out much of the first week of free agency before landing Scott on his new three-year deal. Although he's played four seasons in the NFL, last year was his first full season as a starter.
Now, the Bengals will see what year two as a starter will bring for Scott and the secondary.
The Strictly Stripes crew talks about what separates Scott and how he'll make an impact for the Bengals. They also grade the Bengals' free agency moves up to this point after a week.
This podcast features Mohammad Ahmad, Andrew Gillis and Michael Niziolek.
