Simone Biles showed up at Lambeau Field with the same loyalty she brings every time she supports her husband and Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens. Before kickoff, the two shared their usual pre-game moment. A hug, a quick kiss, a little ritual they’ve built together over the years. It felt sweet, especially with the Bears taking on Green Bay, the team that once had Owens on its roster.
Right after that moment, Simone Biles made her loyalty very much clear. She shared a quick chat with Owens and said to Owens very loudly that the audience in the stands could clearly hear, “Baby, beat the Packers.” It was the sort of cute, but it did not take long before cameras and fans jumped on it.
And to anyone who recalls her screaming on the Packers sideline in 2023 when Owens had a run, the transition was a change of hues. However, as the match became tighter and the tension grew, that message was slowly pushed to the backdrop.

Owens and the Bears gave it their all and drove the game to the last bit, but a late interception topped off a 28 to 21 victory by Green Bay. The last whistle was blown, and within minutes, social media did what social media does most. The thoughtful teamwork message by Simone Biles before the games became trolling.

Packers fans turned Simone Biles’ cheer into a meme
Packers fans resurfaced Simone Biles’ quote and ran with it. One joked, “I never knew she was a comedian. Good joke.” Another fan added, “Even he kno that ain’t happening.” And more added without hesitation, “Baby… they didnt tho.”
Well, yes, whatever people say, Simone Biles simply doesn’t care. All that matters to her is being a supportive wife she has been since 2023. But we pretty much know very well why fans behaved in such a way. It is because of the rivalry between the 2 teams. Since 1992, Green Bay is 52-16 against Chicago and 109-96, to 6 lead in a rivalry that began in 1921. Both sides treat this match as personal, and any spark, even a jab, becomes a part of the story.

One more joked, “The Packers beat him lol.” One more added with no filter, “Bro got cooked by the Packers.” Even Simone Biles could not avoid teasing in the rivalry.

The background only makes it even more hilarious. Jonathan Owens was a 2023 Packers player for only one season. But then, the Packers restructured their safety group and allowed Owens to enter free agency instead of signing him back. Then, he entered into a two-year contract with the Bears in March 2024. This season, however, he has appeared in all 12 games with Chicago and currently has 17 tackles. However, even the rivalry with Green Bay cannot make Biles stop expressing her complete support.
At a recent game, she stepped out in an all-gray outfit, complete with a shirt featuring Owens’ name and a beanie with his No. 36. And she very well knows how much her support is important to Owens. “Oh my gosh,” Simone Biles once said. “It means the world to me. And I know it means so much to him for me to be able to go and support his games. For him, it means a lot for me to go on the sideline before because he says that’s his pre-game routine.”

She added, “So, he’s always looking for me on the sideline to give him, like, good luck vibes and wishes. That’s just his superstition.” At the end of the day, while fans can laugh and tease, the real story is the love and support behind the scenes. Even in a tough rivalry, heart and loyalty always shine through.
