As a general IRS rule, RMDs are not eligible for rollover. Even though the CARES Act suspended RMDs for 2020, the amount that would have been payable as the RMD, if withdrawn from a plan like TRS' TDA Program, is not eligible for direct rollover.

There may be circumstances where distributed funds are eligible for an indirect rollover. You would need to speak with your tax advisor about that.
