Moreover, Biles finds NFL to be easy as all her boyfriend has to do is to throw the football and catch it. However, Owens described getting hit with the ball as the same as a car crash.

“I could go out there and learn how to throw a football, and he’s like, Every time they get hit, it’s like a car crash! I’m like, You’re literally a safety. You don’t get hit. If you get hit, you’re not doing your job,” she added.

Owens and Biles started dating back in August 2020. And since then Owens has tried to learn a lot about gymnastics and started to know why Biles is the best in the history of Gymnastics.
