Commanders classify Chris Rodriguez as suspect with illness
The Commanders late added their injury report for Thursday’s game against the Cowboys.
Running back Chris Rodriguez is now listed as a questionable player. An illness is the reason for Rodriguez’s change in status.
Rodriguez has 96 carries for 435 yards and five touchdowns in 12 games for Washington this season.
Jacory Croskey-Merritt is the Commanders’ best runner this season. Jeremy McNichols and Chase Edmonds are the other running backs on the team’s 53-man roster.
The Commanders ruled out quarterbacks Jayden Daniels (left elbow) and Marcus Mariota (hand, quad) on Wednesday. Josh Johnson will start with Jeff Driskel and practice squad standout Sam Hartman also in attendance. Linebacker Nick Bellore (concussion), defensive tackle Daron Payne (back) and left tackle Laremy Tunsil (oblique) are also out Thursday.
