Benjamin Joseph Scotti (born June 9, 1937 in Newark, New Jersey) is a former American football defensive back in the National Football League. A graduate of the University of Maryland (1959), Scotti played for the Washington Redskins (1959-1961), Philadelphia Eagles (1962-1963), and the San Francisco 49ers (1964). In 1963, Scotti received brief national attention for getting into a brawl with his NFL teammates over the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. He is the brother of media mogul Tony Scotti, with whom he co-produced a few television programs, most notably the suggestive lifeguard drama Baywatch, and also co-founded the Scotti Bros. record label.
