He spent the last five weeks of the 2007 season on the injured reserve. He was waived by the Lions during final cuts before the 2008 season on August 30, 2008.

Late in the 2008 season, on December 18, he was signed by the Buffalo Bills, but did not play any that season. In 2009, he started 8 games for Buffalo and played in 2 more but spent some time inactive due to ankle and eye injuries.[5][6][7] The Bills did not re-sign him after the season.

He played in every game for the Steelers that season and started the last 11 in place of starter Max Starks, including Super Bowl XLV, which the Steelers lost 31–25 to the Green Bay Packers.[8] Leading into the 2011 season, Scott re-signed with the Steelers to a one-year deal on July 29, 2011.[9] He started 5 games that season and played in another 8, but was released by the Steelers on July 19, 2012.
