Is Jonathan Owens risking his NFL career by prioritizing time with Simone Biles over game plans?

Rather than focusing solely on preparing for the NFL season’s final stretch, Jonathan Owens has chosen to be by his wife Simone Biles‘ side. Yes, you heard that right—he’s back on the road with her again! But, on Nov. 3, the Bears have a crucial week ahead as they aim to recover from a tough loss to the Washington Commanders. Now it’s the Arizona Cardinals’ turn, and while the Bears dive into preparations, it looks like Owens has decided that spending time with Simone is a priority over game plans!

As Simone Biles wraps up the final leg of her Gold Over America Tour, she and her fellow gymnasts are enjoying every moment together. Recently, the group had a laugh while autographing old photos of themselves, each image bringing back memories and plenty of amusement. The tour, which started on September 16, is set to finish its last show on November 3 in Detroit, Michigan.

When Ian Gunther shared a video of this hilarious moment on Instagram, it had everyone in stitches. As Simone Biles got her turn to sign autographs, she was shown an old photo of herself mid-eye-roll. Laughing at the sight, she couldn’t help but joke, “That’s tragic, but that’s usually where my eyes are, majority of the time, in the back of my head. 90% of the time I have an eye roll.” It was a lighthearted moment that seemed silly and fun—but was there more to it than meets the eye?

Adding to the lighthearted moment, Jonathan Owens was spotted in the background casually stretching his legs. However, they both can spend more time together as Owens’ NFL season will wrap up in the first week of February with the Super Bowl, marking the last big event of the season. But, before that can happen, all teams must fight for their chance to qualify for the playoffs, leaving uncertainty about when Owens’ season will officially end. But this wasn’t the first time he supported her. Even throughout the tour, Owens has made several appearances, taking every chance to be by her side and share in the experience, showing just how much he supports her journey.

The adorable moments that prove Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens are #CoupleGoals!

During her Gold Over America Tour, Simone Biles made the most of her husband Jonathan Owens’ NFL bye week by inviting him to join her and sharing their sweet moments on Instagram. On Thursday, Oct. 24, the seven-time Olympic gold medalist posted a heartwarming collection of photos, captioning it, “Bye week — bae comes on tour.” The couple was seen enjoying a range of activities, from cuddling in the car to shopping hand-in-hand and having a blast at an arcade. One memorable moment featured Owens posing next to a “GOAT” sign, which playfully referenced both the tour’s title and Biles’ legendary status in gymnastics.

Have an interesting take?

In a fun video, he even attempted an L-sit on the parallel bars while another gymnast looked on. Earlier in October, Biles shared that Owens had joined her for the Austin, Texas, leg of the tour, which also included fellow U.S. gymnasts like Jordan Chiles, Jade Carey, and Hezly Rivera. They captured even more cherished moments during an Oct. 18 brunch, where they shared a kiss, along with a sweet photo of them holding hands as they strolled together.

During a previous stop in Milwaukee, Biles received a heart-shaped bouquet of 26 roses from Owens, who surprised her before her performance. “THE BEST SURPRISE,” she wrote over the image, with a heartfelt “Ilysmf” added for good measure. Despite their hectic schedules keeping them apart at times, they make sure to enjoy every minute they can together.
