As Jonathan Owens embarks on a new epoch, Simone Biles is already finding it difficult to maintain her calm. Once again Simone makes sure that she is found in Owens’ corner as his next chapter unfolds before the world. As the celebrity football safety signs his name on the dotted line of the contract with the Chicago Bears, Biles is seen by his side, despite being unable to be physically there, albeit from afar.

Jonathan Owens’ latest Instagram post shows the former Green Bay Packers star finalizing his move to the Chicago Bears as he signs his contract with his new team. His post read, “Just following his plan.” Owens’ Instagram post is accompanied by an image where Biles can be seen present via FaceTime/video call and grinning broadly. The post further reads, “Excited for this new journey, let’s get it!!!“, as a bear emoji seeks to underscore that Owens’ heart has settled in his new home.

While the NFL star’s contract signing was a general protocol, hints were dropped with little hesitation about the things to come. A keen eye can easily spot several Bears vs. Packers posters on the background from previous encounters between the two goliaths and fans can only speculate how Owens’ return to Wisconsin might bode for him and Simone.

Earlier this year, when the Green Bay team took on the 49ers, America’s most decorated gymnast was seen wearing her husband’s jersey number and making it a point to showcase her pride. In December last year, Simone also left her comfort zone of warm Texas weather to brave Wisconsin’s harsh cold as the Packers took on the Chiefs. As Jonathan chose to move his camp to Chicago after only a year with Green Bay, Biles made sure her unwavering support didn’t falter. Interestingly, as outlined by Simone, Jonathan’s shift to Chicago has another perk for Simone.
