Career
Nicknamed "El Chato" or "Comandante", he is one of the many skilled soccer players to have come out of Club Atlas.

His dead ball especialty skills and great vision of the field won him the right to represent his country.

However, in 2007 Clausura he displayed good enough football to earn a starting place.
At the start of the Apertura 2007, in the second game, Rodríguez scored a magnificent goal against Club Toluca, eventually beating them 3-2. He also scored in the match against Puebla F.C..
An international since 2003, Rodríguez has 36 caps for Mexico, with 2 goals. He was part of 2003 CONCACAF Gold Cup where Mexico won.
