Chris Rodriguez Jr. was limited in practice on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Rodriguez is on track to be good to go for Thursday’s game against the Ravens. He could be in line for an expanded role with Bhayshul Tuten still sidelined from practice on Tuesday.
Chris Rodriguez rushed for 41 yards and a touchdown on six carries, adding in a 17-yard reception in Sunday's 42-7 win over the Colts.
Fantasy Impact
Rodriguez continues to be a solid change-of-pace back for the Jaguars. The fourth-year ball carrier scored his third touchdown of the season in the third quarter of this contest, sprinting from 28 yards out for his longest gain of the campaign to date. Rodriguez is averaging 4.6 yards on his 45 carries so far this season and should be considered a top-tier handcuff.
Chris Rodriguez Jr. rushed for 55 yards on 11 carries in the Jaguars' 34-31 loss to Houston. He did not record a reception on his lone target.
Fantasy Impact
Rodriguez tallied a better yards per carry average than Bhayshul Tuten, but Tuten was able to get more involved in the passing game. Fantasy managers should expect Tuten to continue to see the bulk of the playing time coming out of the Week 7 bye.
Chris Rodriguez Jr. gained five yards on two carries and caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Eagles.
Fantasy Impact
This was the least that Rodriguez has been involved in the offense so far through five games. The fourth-year pro has been valuable as the short-yardage back for the Jaguars this season, averaging slightly over 4.0 yards per carry with a couple of touchdowns on his 28 carries to this point. He should see more touches than this most weeks, but his fantasy value is mostly limited to being a handcuff for starter Bhayshul Tuten right now.
Chris Rodriguez Jr. rushed the ball six times for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
Fantasy Impact
Rodriguez was able to contribute on Sunday, finishing with a touchdown in the team's narrow win over the Bengals. He saw 13 less opportunities than Bhayshul Tuten over the course of the afternoon, however, so he will clearly continue to be a depth contributor for the Jaguars for the foreseeable future.
