Wescott was a back pocket specialist and started his career at Collingwood in 1922. He played in the Collingwood premiership sides of 1927 and 1929.

In 1930 he moved to Tasmania where he played with Longford Football Club in the Northern Tasmanian Football Association, winning the Tasman Shields Trophy for the competition's Best and Fairest player.
