Local product Justin Rodriguez brings depth, toughness, and upside to UTSA’s backfield
Justin Rodriguez is a San Antonio native and experienced UTSA running back whose biggest calling card is reliability: a compact frame, local-rooted toughness, and a track record of doing the little things right. In the 2024 season, his game was limited by injury, but UTSA still listed him as a trusted veteran and an Academic All-Conference performer. He’s not a stat-padding headline machine, but he fits teams that value physicality, maturity, and depth—especially when a program wants a back who knows the system, can absorb contact, and won’t blink in a big moment.
