Bears safety scored second career touchdown on Sunday
During the 2024 Paris Olympics, Chicago Bears safety Jonathan Owens’ social media was spammed with shares and posts of the 29-year-old safety gushing over his wife Simone Biles, who won three gold medals (team, all-around, vault) and one silver (floor exercise).
Now that the NFL season has started, it’s Biles’ turn to brag on her husband, and that’s exactly what she did on Sunday when Owens scored his second career touchdown on a blocked punt in Chicago’s 24-17 win over the Tennessee Titans at Soldier Field.
Biles celebrated her husband’s accomplishment on social media, stating “I almost had a heart attack” in a quote tweet of a video clip of Owens’ touchdown. In that video of Owens scoring, he was given a very fitting new two-word nickname from Fox play-by-play announcer Adam Amin.
“Mr. Biles getting in there,” Amin emphatically stated.

Owens’ touchdown was a turning point in Sunday’s game.
The Bears trailed 17-3 at that point and the blocked punt return for a touchdown pulled them to within one touchdown and started a run of 21 unanswered second-half points.
Chicago’s offense failed to get into the end zone, and the team’s only touchdowns came via Owens’ scoop-and-score and a Tyrique Stevenson pick-6 with 7:35 left in the fourth quarter.
