Scott David Zolak (born December 13, 1967 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) is a former American football quarterback who played in the National Football League (NFL) for nine seasons. During this time, he played for the New England Patriots and Miami Dolphins. Over the course of his career, he played in 55 games, completed 124 of 248 passes for 1,314 yards, threw eight touchdowns and seven interceptions, and finished his career with a passer rating of 64.8.

A graduate of Ringgold High School and the University of Maryland, Zolak was selected 84th in the 1991 NFL Draft by the New England Patriots. He did not play in 1991, but started a few games in 1992 and had his most productive season statistically. When Drew Bledsoe was drafted in 1993, Zolak became his backup for the next six seasons. He saw playing time when Bledsoe was hurt, but only started three games during this time. He was released at the end of the 1998 season, and signed with the New York Jets and Miami Dolphins in 1999, playing in one game for Miami before retiring. After retirement, he became a sportscaster and football analyst in New England.
