After playing college football for the Auburn Tigers as a three-time All-Southeastern Conference (SEC) selection (1986–1988), Rocker moved on to the Washington Redskins in the NFL for two seasons (1989-90). The 6'8", 288-pounder was a major disappointment in his brief pro career, however, in which he registered 3.0 sacks and one fumble recovery in 24 games, 17 of them starts.
In 1993, Rocker was chosen for the Auburn Team of the Century. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame by the National Football Foundation in December, 2004, and one year later, he was afforded the same honor by Alabama state Sports Hall of Fame.
