STM Take

Rodriguez at STTM #30 tier 8 in 2025 closes three years of part-time work in Washington with 920 career rushing yards on solid 4.6 YPC efficiency. The touchdown rate (10 TDs on light volume) hints at a goal-line role that could expand if Jacksonville hands him snaps. The career sample is too small to either confirm or deny.

Rodriguez was born in Riverdale, Georgia, played at Ola High, and spent five years at Kentucky finishing second in school history in career rushing touchdowns and third in rushing yards. Washington took him 193rd overall in the 2023 NFL Draft. After three seasons in Washington, he signed with Jacksonville for 2026. Career line is 920 rushing yards at 4.6 YPC, 10 rushing TDs, and 6 catches for 54 yards.

Strengths

  • 10 career rushing TDs on only 920 yards; the goal-line touchdown rate is well above average for a backup.
  • 4.6 career YPC across three seasons; efficiency holds even on light volume.

Concerns

  • Only 6 career receptions; pass-game role does not yet exist, capping PPR ceiling.
  • Three years in Washington never produced more than a handful of meaningful starts; the role has always been situational.

What to watch: Whether Jacksonville gives him goal-line snaps; the touchdown rate suggests value if the volume comes.
