The use of 'Jock' related to the modern use of the word for an athletic supporter and athletes started around the 1650's, as the word 'Jock' became associated with slang for 'penis'. Jock was previously used as a nickname for Jack, as Dick was a nickname for Richard, and both slowly evolved to the slang use of today, although at different times.
