Primarily athletes like footballers, track and field players, and gymnasts have higher chances of getting harmed. One of the countable types of injury is ACL, which every player has suffered through with time. In gymnastics, whenever a gymnast ends up with a short landing or over-rotation, it can lead to an ACL injury. However, gymnasts like Simone Biles have never gone through severe injuries, probably due to their brilliant strategy. 

Meanwhile, her fiance Jonathan Owens, an NFL star, once went through ACL injuries for six straight months. The dangerous part of this long-term injury is that it could lead to knee instability. Speaking about this, Owens once shared his wrecking story of a heart-touching experience for any athlete.

Simone Biles’ fiance Owens depicts his ACL damage

The 25-year-old Biles‘ fiance, Jonathan, started his football career during high school days. At the same time, the injury occurred when he was two months before graduating from Christian Brothers College High School in St. Louis. Interestingly, the NFL player got this damage due to another sport: track and field.

Owens depicted the situation as he went down the high school’s memory lane. He said, “So this a crazy story of how I found out my ACL was torn in high school because I didn’t know for like six months that it was torn.” Further, Jonathan described how he discovered the harm after his knee bulged, “I didn’t know. I did long jump in high school, and I actually won the meet, and afterwards, my knee kind of swelled up.”

Eventually, after suffering from an ACL injury, he left his track career behind and poured his complete focus on NFL. However, in the next five years, he again got an ACL injury in another knee. In addition, during the interview, he joked about getting injured since the start of his NFL career.
