Scott will also contribute regularly to "Get Up" (8-10am) and "First Take" (10am-noon), ESPN television's daily morning shows. Scott joined ESPN 98.7 FM as a special guest for the 2017 NFL season on "The Michael Kay Show and Humpty & Canty." He also hosted "Inside The Jets."

He played for Baltimore for seven seasons and finished his career in 2012 with the New York Jets. In 2006, Scott was selected to the Pro Bowl. He worked as an NFL analyst for CBS from 2013 to 2017.

"I am super excited to rejoin the ESPN NY 98.7 family," said Scott. "I look forward to partnering with Alan and giving New York sports fans an entertaining, diversified and informative listening experience."

WEPN/New York Senior VP/General Manager Tim McCarthy added, "We are so excited to have Bart back at 98.7 ESPN where we started his radio career. The combination of Bart and Alan will add a unique perspective to New York sports talk in a very entertaining fashion."
