Scott, the Virginia native who played his college career at the University of Virginia and spent the 2017-18 season with the Wizards, didn’t appear to get injured in the video of the fight. He stuck around and took selfies, according to posts by other fans. Scott has become a popular player in the city for responding to invitations on social media and showing up to hang out with fans. He dropped in at wedding reception earlier in the summer. ___ More AP NFL: https://apnews.com/tag/NFL and https://twitter.com/AP_NFL
