Overflowing with pride and enthusiasm for her husband’s career move, Biles exclaimed in a post on X, “CHICAGO HERE HE COMES.” Recalling the waves Simone’s presence made at NFL games last year, fans eagerly welcomed the gymnastics queen with open arms.

Amidst the warm reception for both Jonathan Owens and Simone, one tweet humorously noted, “The Chicago Bears gained an extraordinary athlete today.
