United States star Trinity Rodman has been ruled out indefinitely by the Washington Spirit as she continues to deal with an ongoing back injury.

"Trinity is taking time away from team activities to manage her back," the Spirit said in a statement to ESPN on Saturday. "We look forward to her returning when she's healthy."

Rodman, 22, has been battling back issues for several years and last month said that she didn't think it would ever be "100 percent" healthy.

"It's kind of an issue of it's not one specific thing, it's just the way that my back's structured," she said. "And it's more so management than like a curable fix.

"I don't think my back will ever be the way it was my rookie year, which is unfortunate," she added.

Rodman's agent Mike Senkowski told The Washington Post on Saturday that she was "taking time away from team activities at the moment to meet with [Spirit] doctor in London," adding that "she will return as soon as she's healthy."

Two weeks ago, Rodman make a scoring return to the USWNT against Brazil in her first appearance since the 2024 Olympics. In Paris, she scored three goals as part of the self-proclaimed "Triple Espresso" forward line alongside Sophia (Smith) Wilson and Mallory Swanson to lead the USWNT to the gold medal.

Rodman was forced to leave a Spirit NWSL game in a wheelchair in September after a recurrence of the back injury. While she returned for the end of the season, she acknowledged that she was hindered by the back problem in the Spirit's NWSL championship loss to the Orlando Pride in November.

Washington next play at the Orlando Pride on Saturday. The USWNT's next action is scheduled to come in two friendlies against China and Jamaica on May 31 and June 3, respectively.
