Jonathan Owens won't win any gold medals for his show vault on Sunday.
Bears safety and husband of gymnastics star Simone Biles attempted to jump into the stands at Lambeau Field during his team's 24-22 win over Green Bay, with Fox commentators Darrell Johnston and Kevin Kugler quipping that the 11-time Olympic medalist “would probably be the best.” She shook her head when she saw that.”
Owens (29 years old) was celebrating the faltering recovery in the first half by jumping into the wall.
Biles, 27, wasn't far from the action, as she was seen kissing Owens on the sideline before kickoff, according to photos shared by the NFL on X.
Owens is in his first season with the Bears, who finished their disappointing 2024 campaign on Sunday at 5-12.
He spent the previous season with the Packers.
Biles, who married Owens in the spring of 2023, attended some of the Bears' games this season after the conclusion of the Gold Over America Tour in November.
She competed at the Paris Olympics over the summer, adding four more medals to her collection: three golds for the individual all-around, team all-around, and vault final; She won a silver medal in the floor exercise final.
Owens was given permission to support Biles on the outside during Bears training camp.
“You accomplish whatever you set your mind to, and you do it with a lot of grace,” Owens said via Instagram in August. “…So proud to be your husband.”
Biles was announced as Sports Illustrated's Female Athlete of the Year on Thursday, and spoke about her fourth Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028.
“Life and death,” she told Sports Illustrated. “Because I've accomplished so much, there's almost nothing left to do, instead of being arrogant and trying again and why? I'm at a point in my career where I'm humble enough to know when to do it.
