Jacob Rodriguez Shines as Defensive Bright Spot in Debut

Miami Dolphins rookie linebacker Jacob Rodriguez earned team honors as the Week 1 "Fins Up" player after starring in his debut against Las Vegas. Wearing the green dot as the sole rookie defender with direct coach communication, Rodriguez tallied 14 total tackles—second most among Week 1 rookies—while allowing just 7 receiving yards in coverage. He looks to build on this strong performance when Miami clashes with the San Francisco 49ers.
