Tulsa’s young DB with real ball-hawk upside and special-teams grit
In the 2024 season, Dedaunte Scott appeared in six games for Tulsa and finished with four tackles, then played three more games in 2025 mainly on special teams and defense, showing the kind of developmental, do-everything utility coaches love. He’s a 6-foot, 185-pound defensive back with speed and burst traits that pop, and his background as a productive high school playmaker suggests real coverage instincts even if the box score is still light. The fit? A smart depth piece with upside—quick enough to matter, tough enough to stick, and still building into his ceiling.
