Career
Youth
Rodriguez started his youth career with FC Dallas. However, his road through the academy system was not cut and dried.[1] Rodriguez was actually rejected the first time he tried to join the FC Dallas academy.[1] After this rejection, Rodriguez played for FC Dallas youth coach Victor Medina outside of the FC Dallas academy for three years.[1] His career took off when Rodriguez starred for his club against professional youth sides from Mexico, like C.D. Guadalajara and Club León.[1] From that point, Rodriguez signed for FC Dallas's academy in 2017. He helped the club win the prestigious Dallas Cup during his time with the academy.[1]
Professional
On January 31, 2019, Rodriguez signed his first professional contract with North Texas SC, the reserve team of FC Dallas, in USL League One.[2] Rodriguez's younger brother, David Rodriguez, was also signed to a professional contract with the club.[3] Rodriguez made his debut on March 30, 2019, in a 3–2 win against the Chattanooga Red Wolves.[4] Rodriguez helped lead North Texas to the USL League One 2019 regular season and post-season championship, while becoming the league's assist leader with 10 assists and a leading MVP candidate.[5][1] On October 31 and November 1, respectively, Rodriguez was named both the Young Player of the Year and the League's Most Valuable Player (MVP).[6] He scored his first goal for the club on November 5, 2019, against fellow MLS reserve side Orlando City B.[4]
Rodriguez signed with Phoenix Rising FC on December 8, 2020, and left on January 23, 2023.[7][8]
