Chris Rodriguez Jr. Leads Washington In Rushing Against Rams
11 months agoWashington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. had 10 carries for 35 yards during Sunday's loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Despite all the hype for fellow running back Antonio Gibson, it was Rodriguez who ended up handling the lion's share of Washington's carries in Week 15. It wasn't an impressive outing for the rookie, but this performance shows where the backfield is at when starter Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) misses time. If Robinson is good to go in Week 16, then Rodriguez will likely return to his usual workload. However, he could be an interesting player to stash as a handcuff for the late season.
