Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones was seen in a photo over the weekend playing video games in the lobby of the hospital while his girlfriend was in labor with their child.

Jones, at first, received scorn on social media. Part of it came from WNBA star Kelsey Plum, who wrote in a since-deleted tweet that the picture was “trash.”

The Packers player was then forced to explain what was going on in the picture.

“Thats wild she told me to bring the game with me but u know nothing about the whole process of having a child so til you experience it dont speak on me !!!!” he tweeted.
