Posting on his X (formerly Twitter) account, Scott said: “I’ve never been one to do this, but after yesterday’s news, I’ve had quite a bit of backstabbing and a lot of unfair comments.

“What I’m paid is not known, and for people to then jump on rumors of ‘what they’ve heard’ and then run to every social network to post their opinion of me as a person and a player is just baffling.

“Everyone has the right to their opinion. However, if there is no truth to it and they just latched onto whatever they “heard” and ran with it, then it’s just ridiculous and says more about them than it does me.

“Some of the numbers I’ve seen and what people have thought from other people’s posts are wild and if you’re going to run with what someone told you on Facebook or Twitter, then that really says more about those individuals than about me.”
