Scott Junior (born May 5, 2035) is an American football safety for the London Royals of the Developmental Simulation Football League (DSFL).

Early years

Scott Junior was born in Atlanta, Georgia. Despite a wealthy family, his parents raised him in the rougher parts of the city like College Park. They point to that and his time in public schools as to why he was so well adjusted to the pro levels. He was an only child and therefore recieved all of his parent's attention. His father, Not Junior, was famous in the Chinese Basketball League for being a journeyman to whichever team needed him. His mother, Miya, was a blues musician. She retired from music until he was about 5 and could start to learn instruments himself. Most of what he grew up listening to was old school like Miles Davis and Duke Ellington. He even tried to create a jazz band during his time in middle school. He spent most of his childhood learning the trombone, baritone, tuba, and trumpet. His favorite was the trombone because of how much control the slide gives you over the sound. Once he got to high school however he picked up football and had to decide between passions. Not Junior told him that professional sports would take him anywhere he wanted to go and thus he chose football. Still valuing the music, he went to Bethune-Cookman University to get a degree in music.

College career

Scott was an extremely raw player coming out of high school. His game seemed entirely mental so he fit best as a Free Safety role. He broke the INT record previously held by Rashean Mathis and managed to grab 16 INTs in a single season. The award ceremony itself involves Scott having to snag the trophy away from Mathis, a task that was made undoubtedly easy given the age difference. Doesn't mind getting into the pile. Training and experience really helped elevate him to the point of being the first pick in the second round.

Professional Career

S43

Coming out of college, Scott Junior initially played in the prospect bowl for the London Redcoats in order for the professional leagues to scout him and watch his performance. Afterwards, he was taken as the first pick in the second round of the DSFL draft and remained in London with the Royals picking him up. Altho playing out of position as a cornerback, Scott managed to make the best of his position and not only cemented himself in the locker room, bus also into history books. Despite not garnering any interceptions as a defensive back, he did come away with a record for the most forced Fumbles in a regular season at eight! Altho the Royals ended up not doing well finishing with five wins and nine losses, Scott Junior had a lot to build upon for future success. He also managed to work his way into the London war room and become a scout for the team. Amongst all of this, he was also granted the position of a GM in the WFC to help the Southwest win!

S44

During his second year with the Royals, Junior was able to play in his usual position of Free Safety. It would allow him to play more naturally and to his style, but also meant he would be off the ball much more. He couldn't get even close to his record breaking performance with only 1 forced fumble. Obviously as a Safety tho the intrigue was in his picks, in which junior walked away with 5. He also managed to pick up 3 sacks as well as a blocked FG. His pass deflections and tackles fell off as he wasn't on the ball so much, but he made up for it by cleaning up the tackling and ensuring proper tackling on order to bring ball carriers down more consistently. Now, he's going back to his home country of the United States after two years of being away,and begin his career with the Second Line. Here he hopes to prove himself a cornerstone as NOLA is exiting out of their rebuild and into competition mode.

S45

In his third season with the league, Scott was called up away from London and put on a plane to New Orleans. He was excited about the city and culture, but even more excited about becoming an important piece for his team. The Second Line had allowed Scott to be put into his natural position of free safety despite fellow teammate Inspector Gadget being the much better player. This would give Scott important time not only on the field, but under the wing of a great safety as well. Altho calling a 5-11 season 'good' would be dubious, it was a marked improvement from his time with London. He was unable to keep up the production regarding forced fumbles because of the steep curve you hit joining the upper league, but he still managed to grab 1. He was actually better coming off the edge, getting himself 3 sacks. His only interception was also returned for a touchdown, so he was able to get points on the board like intended.

S46

Returning to the ISFL as technically a veteran for the first time, Scott was hoping to avoid a sophomore slump. Unfortunately, the team started off losing 6 straight games that had people questioning the direction of the team. The GMs heard this however and decided it needed to change and made a trade to get rid of the aging Gadget in lieu of a slightly less aging Billy Jor-El. This helped elevate the team to 4 straight wins, however the team lost the rest of the way, losing an additional game from last year despite the trade. Scott himself actually did suffer from a slump, and had a worse season than last year missing more tackles and nearly halving the amount of passes defended. Ideally this is a result of the secondary as a whole getting better, but without even a touchdown to hang his hat on he started to focus more on improving his game.
