SUMMARY
Tyler Scott is an explosive athlete who offers great agility both on deep and intermediate routes. He can alter his speed and is intelligent enough to read defences but also has the elusiveness to act upon those instincts. With the ball in hand, Scott produces after the catch with his good body control and sudden mobility to evade tacklers. Scott offers elite speed which is his calling card, but he offers much more than that. In a class which lacks speed and athleticism, Scott offers something that not many do in the 2023 receiver class.
