Rodriguez' college OC reunion and superior efficiency threaten Tuten's Jaguars role.

Rodriguez reunites with his college offensive coordinator in Jacksonville after a noteworthy finish with the Commanders. When Austin Ekeler was injured, Rodriguez took on 34% of the team's carries and 45% of the team's goal-line attempts, demonstrating significant volume potential. In Jacksonville, he poses a direct threat to Bhayshul Tuten's backfield share with superior efficiency metrics: 51.8% rushing success rate (versus Tuten's 50.0%), 3.7 adjusted yards after contact per attempt (versus Tuten's 3.2), and a 20.5% forced missed tackle rate (versus Tuten's 21.7%). The source notes that Jayden Daniels' injury limited Rodriguez's opportunity in Washington, but his new situation in Jacksonville offers a clearer path to volume.
