Free agent addition Chris Rodriguez Jr. was also back on the field. He didn't participate in team drills as he continues to return from offseason foot surgery... the best of C-Rod will not be seen until the pads come on and we play tackle.

STACKED’s take

NeutralInjury

Rodriguez Jr. returns to field but limited in team drills; foot surgery recovery ongoing.

Free agent running back addition returned to field on Day 1 but did not participate in team drills as he continues recovery from offseason foot surgery. Head coach Liam Coen characterized it as a positive step forward, noting Rodriguez was "so down" after getting hurt on his first day and is now pleased to be with teammates and receiving coaching. Coen emphasized that Rodriguez's true impact won't be visible until pads come on and tackle football begins, but praised his toughness, work ethic ("glass eater"), and willingness to run through walls for the organization.
