From the episode

I don't really think Chris Rodriguez Jr. is ever going to be the answer in this backfield...he's never had over 500 rushing yards in a season. He's never convinced the coaching staff to make him that guy.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Rodriguez lacks passing-game value and is sidelined with foot injury; unlikely to lead Jaguars backfield.

Rodriguez is unlikely to be the lead back in Jacksonville despite the Liam Cohn connection from college. He lacks passing-game utility (never over 500 rushing yards in a season) and has not convinced coaching staffs to make him a featured back. He is currently sidelined with a foot injury in OTAs with uncertain return timing, which further limits his ability to carve out a role and compete with Tootin for early-down work.
