Born in Montevideo, Rodríguez joined the youth system of Danubio F.C. in 2010. In 2012, he joined the senior team, playing 12 matches in 2012–13 Primera División, and 2 matches in 2012 Copa Sudamericana.

In 2013, Rodríguez joined Portuguese club S.L. Benfica, being assigned to the reserve team in Segunda Liga. There, he played 3 matches in the 2012–13 campaign, and 21 matches in 2013–2014. In 2014–15 he was inactive, not being part of the B team.[4]

On 5 February 2015, it was announced that Rodríguez had been loaned to Peñarol.[5][6] He subsequently represented Cerro, Sud América, Fénix and Argentine side San Martín de San Juan before joining Spanish side UD Almería on 18 July 2019.[7]

On 28 August 2019, however, Rodríguez terminated his contract with the Andalusians after the club's change of ownership.
