After injury, USWNT's Trinity Rodman continues road to recovery with latest update

Trinity Rodman took the field for an agility drill as she recovered from a back injury that kept her out of her sport for a significant time. As per the official reports, the USWNT star had been indefinitely ruled out by the Washington Spirit as she was dealing with a back injury.

Rodman, one of the most formidable soccer players of this generation, helped the USWNT advance to the Paris Olympic semifinals. She was also part of the squad that won the gold against Brazil in the finals.

In her club career, she became the joint leading scorer of the Washington Spirit in 2024, and two of her goals earned NWSL Goal of the Week honors. However, in a match against the Kansas City Current in September, Rodman was helped off the field in a wheelchair after citing back spasms. After taking some time off to recover from the injury, the American soccer player returned to the field to rehabilitate and get back to her form steadily.

In a recent Instagram story, the 23-year-old resumed training with an agility drill but made it fun by concluding the reps with wiggles.

"Putting in that work," she captioned her story.

Rodman joined the Washington Cougars to compete in the NCAA, but she never played a match in her freshman season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and later turned professional.

Trinity Rodman has been dealing with back issues since her first year with the Washington Spirit. Despite bringing her A-game to the field and becoming the most sought-after following Alex Morgan and Becky Sauerbrunn's retirement, Rodman once shared that she would never possibly be back to her 100 percent.

"Honestly, I don't think my back will ever be 100 percent. It's kind of an issue of it's not one specific thing, it's just the way that my back's structured. And it's more so management than like a curable fix. So I think we've managed it really well and I'm happy with the progression that we've had. But for me, I don't think my back will ever be the way it was my rookie year, which is unfortunate," she said in a post-match interview in March.

The 23-year-old began dating Ben Shelton, one of the most popular tennis players in the US.
