MLB HOFer Chipper Jones reacts to John Rocker and Patrick Mahomes Sr.'s near-brawl at Super Bowl

Patrick Mahomes Sr. and John Rocker's altercation after the Super Bowl on Sunday made headlines. A video circulated online by a bystander shows Rocker approaching Mahomes and offering a handshake before being shoved away. The two got into a verbal altercation and had to be restrained. Rocker threw his drink at Mahomes as he was escorted away.

Chipper Jones, Rocker's teammate at the Braves from 1998 to 2001, took to X to give his reaction. He retweeted the video of the two fighting and captioned it with an emoji.

Rocker and Mahomes were divisional rivals as part of the New York Mets and Atlanta Braves, respectively, in the 1999 and 2000 MLB seasons.

John Rocker and Patrick Mahomes Sr. continue fighting on social media

Even though it wasn't clear what was said between John Rocker and Patrick Mahomes Sr., the two former MLB players continued their feud on social media. Rocker called Mahomes out for seemingly being unable to take a joke.

"This f***ing loser can't take a damn joke. Wish I laid him out right there and ruined his bulls**t weekend even more," Rocker wrote.

"You really haven't changed one bit in the last 25 years. Keep my name out your loud mouth," Mahomes responded.

Both Mahomes and Rocker have had to deal with complications outside the ballpark. Mahomes has been hit with multiple DUI violations and is serving five years of probation. He was sent to jail for 10 days last year.

John Rocker, meanwhile, has been criticized by fans for allegedly homophobic and racist remarks made in the past.

Many believe the incident was a publicity stunt for Barstool Sports' Rough 'n Rowdy boxing event. Patrick Mahomes Sr. has reportedly signed a contract with the organization for a fight.
