| News for Rodriguez, Chris |

Chris Rodriguez (hand) was limited on Monday’s estimated practice report. 2026-11-02 21:00:01 This appears to be a non-issue as the veteran change of pace back should be fine for Thursday Night Football against the Ravens. Of greater concern was the absence of lead back Bayshul Tuten, something fantasy managers of both players will want to monitor as Thursday draw nearer. Rodriguez would seemingly be in line for a featured role if Tuten is unable to play on a short week. |

Chris Rodriguez rushed six times for 41 yards and a touchdown in the Jaguars’ Week 8 win over the Colts, adding a 17-yard reception. 2026-11-01 19:00:02 Rodriguez was still getting out-snapped and out-produced by a percolating Bhayshul Tuten, but he managed to contribute a 28-yard score in a blowout victory. Rodriguez hit the hole then emerged to an abandoned mall of a Colts defense. With the Jaguars heading on the road for a short-week Thursday night date with a Ravens team operating without Lamar Jackson, expect lots of “get me out of here” Jags rushes in Baltimore, locking Rodriguez in as a Week 9 FLEX play. |

Chris Rodriguez rushed 11 times for 55 yards in Jacksonville’s Week 6 loss to the Texans. 2026-10-18 14:00:02 He failed to catch his only target. Rodriguez was churning out success rate on the regular in the first half. The Jaguars curiously went away from him in the second half, as he played just 21-of-70 snaps and had only one carry after halftime. He’s not a must-hold through the bye week, but this game is the proof-of-concept that he can be an effective weapon for the Jaguars if they want to use him as a between-the-tackles pounder. |

Chris Rodriguez rushed two times for five yards in the Jaguars’ Week 5 win over the Eagles. 2026-10-11 16:00:02 Rodriguez was all but phased out of the rotation in this game. His most notable touch was a goal line carry which he was stuffed on and then fumbled the ball away. He was called down on the field. Even though replay clearly showed him losing the ball, there was no clear recovery and the refs didn’t bother overturning the non-fumble. Rodriguez may still be the occasional touchdown vulture, but his role has been reduced to the point where fantasy managers can safely cut ties with him on the next run of waivers. |

Chris Rodriguez rushed six times for 35 yards in the Jaguars’ Week 4 win over the Bengals. 2026-10-04 17:00:02 Rodriguez entered the game frequently when the Jaguars entered Bengals territory. He has a hold on short-yardage opportunities while also getting some red zone looks, but Bhayshul Tuten is the clear lead back. Rodriguez was out-snapped 36-to-15 but salvaged his fantasy day with a 25-yard rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter. He is a handcuff for fantasy purposes heading into Week 5. |
