Is Chris Rodriguez Jr. Playing in Week 9?
Rodriguez is not on the injury report and, barring a surprise, is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Commanders’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Rodriguez in Week 9?
This Washington backfield is struggling to sustain one RB I feel reasonable about, so there’s no need to handcuff this situation.
Chris Rodriguez has 27 rushes and a single target to his name in 2022. If Jacory Croskey-Merritt were to get injured, I think most of his role would shift toward Rodriguez, but we’d be talking about 80% of a role that is only useful some of the time.
You can find better ways to use your bench.
