After his career as a schoolboy legend at Central Bucks High School East and as a defensive back at Penn State, after a decade in the NFL with three teams, Scott would seem as healthy, as well-adjusted to life without football, as he could hope to be. Once the Buffalo Bills released him just before the 2013 regular season, he went to the gym the next day - in part out of routine, in part to stay in shape in case another NFL team called him - and remembered in mid-bench-press that a 10-year NFL career had been his goal since entering the league. He put down the weights and, at that moment, retired. He had suffered, officially, two concussions, the more recent and more severe of them in 2009, but he said that those injuries were not on his mind when he decided to walk away. Other things were.
