| Cincinnati Bengals RB Bernard Scott carried 22 times for 76 yards in Week 8 against the Seattle Seahawks. He made the start with RB Cedric Benson suspended for one game by the NFL. He also had three receptions for zero yards. |

| Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden wants to see RB Bernard Scott, who is expected to start in Week 8 in place of the suspended RB Cedric Benson, post a long run. The Bengals are last in the NFL with just two runs of at least 15 yards this season, and the team has just one run of 28 or more yards, which happened back in Week 1. |
| Fantasy Impact: Scott has some upside in a starting role but don't expect huge numbers. |
|
| Cincinnati Bengals RB Bernard Scott will receive the start against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 8 with RB Cedric Benson serving his one-game suspension. Scott has 30 rushes for 85 yards and a touchdown this year. |
| Fantasy Impact: Scott is worth a look as a flex option in this role but don't expect big numbers in a really tough matchup. |

| Cincinnati Bengals RB Bernard Scott is in favor of offensive coordinator Jay Gruden's new ground attack; he rushed for 63 yards on six carries in his debut last week. 'When you see it, you hit it. You don't have to do too much reading. You can just go out there and play off your natural instincts,' Scott said. 'The last offense it was like you had two or three different keys you needed to read. To me, I could just never let it loose. I was reading and trying to play perfect instead of just playing football.' |
| Fantasy Impact: The offense seems a good fit for Scott, who should get a little more work this season. We wouldn't count on a ton more touches, though. |

| Cincinnati Bengals RB Bernard Scott (hamstring) didn't show any problems with his previous hamstring injury during the team's preaseason game Thursday, Aug. 25, but he said following the game that he still is not 100 percent healthy. Scott rushed for 63 yards on six carries, including a 12-yard touchdown run. 'He ran a power play on his touchdown and there's an unblocked guy standing right in front of him. He just cut it. The guy wouldn't have even pulled his flag in flag football; that's how quick it was,' said offensive coordinator Jay Gruden. |
