Big Cat Country on Chris Rodriguez
From the article
Running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. has been brought along slowly in offseason training programs after undergoing foot surgery. The free agent pickup only participated in individual drills for the first three days of training camp, but Rodriguez Jr. saw his first rep in team drills on Sunday, and he left a mark on Monday.
STACKED’s take
Rodriguez Jr. makes immediate impact in first padded practice after foot surgery recovery.
Running back Chris Rodriguez Jr., a free agent pickup recovering from foot surgery, participated in individual drills only for the first three days of training camp but saw his first team drills rep on Sunday and made an immediate impact on Monday in the first padded practice. On his first carry, the 5'11", 224-pound back weaved through a rushing lane and delivered a powerful hit to a defensive back, drawing standing ovation from fans and approving nods from former Jaguars legends on the sideline. Head coach Liam Coen, who coached Rodriguez Jr. at Kentucky in 2021, noted he was "feeling better" and "continuously getting better," with the team being smart about getting him acclimated while not aggravating his foot injury early in camp.
