Who does Rhodes defend?

Recommended Posts

I think this is a huge thing to know this week. Does he shadow? Any idea on if so who he will?

 

If he shadows woods Id be in on Watkins and very out in woods

If he doesnt shadow Id be more in on woods and more out on Watkins.

I think last week he shadowed Doctson, which leads me to believe that even when there isn't a true #1 on the other team he still shadows someone and it may not be based on the other receivers production. I'd guess Watkins, but that's simply a guess.

Usually plays on the left side of QB. At some point in the game he may shadow, if needed. He left the field last week for something, but have not followed up on that.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports the Vikings are "optimistic" CB Xavier Rhodes (questionable, hip) will play Sunday against the Steelers.

Steelers play tonight. Vikings play the Rams Sunday.

Correct, Rhodes is a RCB by position though of course he can shadow.

 

Watkins usually lines up on that side of the field. Watkins is also faster than Woods or Kupp so he may check Watkins all game.
