Simone Biles’ husband Jonathan Owens makes Bears roster after missing part of training camp for Paris Olympics

Though he missed a chunk of training camp, Simone Biles’ husband’s job with the Chicago Bears is safe.

 

 

Safety Jonathan Owens officially made the Bears’ 53-man roster on Tuesday afternoon. While that may not have been much of a surprise, Owens’ training camp was unlike perhaps anyone else’s in the league this summer.

Owens left midway through camp to go watch his wife compete at the Paris Olympics. Biles won three gold medals and a silver medal in France, which brought her to 11 total Olympic medals in her career. She’s now the most decorated gymnast of all time, and is one of the all-time Olympic great.

While the Bears were preparing for the season, Owens was watching Biles compete in person — which is something he negotiated with the team when he first signed his contract. And the Bears were all for it. The team provided him recordings to meetings, practices and schemes while he was in Paris. He said they were all incredibly supportive of him the entire way. Many even were pushing him to bring souvenirs back with him.

Owens signed a two-year, $4.75 million deal with the Bears this offseason. He had 84 total tackles and recovered a fumble last season with the Green Bay Packers. The 29-year-old got his start in the league with the Houston Texans, where he spent four seasons and first met Biles — who trains at a Houston area gym. The couple first got engaged in 2022 ahead of his final season with the team, which was his first as a true starter in the league.

It’s unclear if Biles will attempt to compete in the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles, where she’ll be 31 years old. But in the meantime, it’s safe to assume that Biles will be in the stands for at least a few Bears games this fall.

“I just think about, ‘How did I get so lucky that this is my wife and I get to see her?’” Owens said of Biles before the Olympics. “Someone that’s literally at the pinnacle of their sport, and I get to call [her] my wife.

“Just blessed.”
