Chandler Jones has spent the last week or so talking a pretty big game about his skills away from the football field by challenging his older brother to a fight. For most people, that would not mean all that much, but Chandler's big brother is Jon "Bones" Jones, the UFC light heavyweight champion.

Chandler wants to set up a fight between the two and pick a worthy cause than can benefit from the event. Jon has yet to respond to any of Chandler's invitations about the bout, which caused the younger brother to say earlier this week that Bones was ducking him.

Of course, there is no word on whether such a fight would actually be allowed to happen because of the potential losses the Patriots and UFC could face if either Jones brother got injured. Chandler has said that the Patriots would have to okay it for him to fight.

According to TMZ, the team spoke out about whether or not he would be allowed to participate in such an event. The Patriots VP of Media Relations says, "It's not a matter of if we'd allow Chandler to fight his brother. We can't stop the players from doing what they want. But he might be voiding his contract obligations to the team if he went out and did it."

"Without getting into a specific contract, there have to be clauses [in contracts] that protect the team ... restrictions of physical activity that would risk injury. Whether it be skiing, jumping out of a plane or riding a motorcycle without a helmet in a state that requires one," he continued.

"I think they're having fun, but do I think fighting is something they're actually serious about? No. They're brothers. They have a sibling rivalry. Take the Gronkowski brothers ... there's not a Gronk among them that would say Rob's better at anything."

Chandler has said that he thinks he can take his older brother. We will see if the possibility of having his contract voided dampens Chandler's enthusiasm for a the one-round charity bout that he has proposed.
