Rodriguez Back, But Not Full Speed | Jacksonville Jaguars News

Chris Rodriguez Jr. is finally cleared to return after a foot injury sidelined him early in offseason workouts, but he’s not rushing back — he’s easing into training camp with limited participation. Head coach Liam Coen, who coached him at Kentucky, is thrilled to see him back on the field, praising his toughness and relentless mentality. Though Rodriguez’s college explosiveness may not be fully visible yet, Coen calls him a “glass eater” — someone who’ll give everything for the team. With the regular season opener just around the corner, the Jaguars are focused on getting him ready for real games, not preseason hype. Rodriguez, who rushed for over 500 yards and six touchdowns last year with the Commanders, is eager to contribute and grateful to be back with his former coach.
