\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tJonathan Owens and Simone Biles are one tight-knit family unit. Owens, 29, took to social media just hours after making his debut for the Chicago Bears on Sunday, September 8, sharing Biles\u2019 response to his first touchdown of the NFL season. After Biles, 27, wrote via X that she \u201calmost had a heart attack\u201d watching [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
And the support works both ways. The Bears gave Owens permission last year to miss part of training camp so he could watch Biles compete at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Before heading out, he told Us Weekly<\/em> about how he supports her<\/a> in competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThank You!<\/h3>\n

\u201cIt is not much motivation you need to do, just because you don\u2019t want to put extra, added pressure on anyone,\u201d Owens exclusively told Us<\/em>. \u201cI just tell her, \u2018Go do your thing, baby.\u2019\u2026 As long as she\u2019s there, she\u2019s on the field, give her a kiss and we can go about our way.\u201d<\/p>\n\u201cYou get a different type of focus whenever you just have this one person that you\u2019re focusing on,\u201d he continued. \u201cAnd I ain\u2019t saying there\u2019s something wrong with being single, but for me, knowing myself, I\u2019ve played a lot better since [meeting Simone], I\u2019ve just been focused and locked in, and you come home, talk about my day and play with the dogs, you know what I mean? That\u2019s just kind of, like, our thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Bears will open the 2025 NFL season on Monday, September 8, at home against the Minnesota Vikings.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
