The Houston Texans played against the San Francisco 49ers in 2017. This match was where Biles first showed her cheerleading skills. “I was so excited because I tweeted … and then they asked, and I was like, ‘Oh snap, it’s getting real,’” Biles said before the big game.

Biles mentioned that the cheerleaders were also supportive and helped her with videos and tips for the match. She said, “So, they’re so helpful in telling me how the crowd’s going to react and how loud it’s going to be so to not pay attention because you can get distracted.”
