After posting his career-high in rushing yards during the most important game (thus far) of the young 2021 season, it was only right that Chris Rodriguez Jr. earned some high praise.
The Kentucky Wildcats junior running back was named the SEC Player of the Week by our friends over at On3. Rodriguez ran all over the Missouri Tigers in the ‘Cats 35-28 win on Saturday night, racking up 206 yards on 27 carries for three rushing touchdowns. He also caught a touchdown from Will Levis to put him at four scores for the day.
