Scott had been with the Raiders the past ten years; the last three in his current position. He was promoted to that position by Mike Mayock after six seasons as an area scout for the Raiders.
Others to be let go include director of football research Dave Razzano and senior advisor to the GM Walter Juliff.

Razzano had worked for 28 years as an NFL scout before joining the Raiders four years ago in his current role.
Juliff’s role was specific to Mayock, so his dismissal was to be expected. Ziegler has already brought on board Champ Kelly as assistant general manager, a title that didn’t previously exist for the Raiders.
