Fresh off the 2024 Olympics in Paris, Biles, 27, arrived at Chicago’s Soldier Field on Saturday, August 17, to support Owens, 29, and the Bears during their game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Biles shared a photo of her game day outfit via her Instagram Story, which consisted of an oversized jacket with black and white images of Owens in his No. 34 jersey, which he wore while playing for the Green Bay Packers. Owens played for the Packers in 2023 before signing a two-year contract with the Bears, their longtime NFL rivals, in March 2024.
The Olympian completed her outfit with a black bodysuit which she paired with a black Prada bucket hat and a black and white Nike sneaker. In a Boomerang shared to her Instagram Story, Biles wore a black ankle boot on her left foot due to a calf injury she suffered during the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
Biles tweaked her calf during warmups on the floor on July 28 before the all-around gymnastics qualifiers as she attempted to land her triple-double. Laurie HernándezOlympic commentator and Team USA alum, noted that Biles “landed strangely” while practicing the stunt. Biles, for her part, performed her floor routine with a strapped calf and took home a silver medal for Women’s Floor – Artistic Gymnastics. (Biles won a total of four medals at the Paris Games: one silver and three gold.)

“I feel like elite athletes are quite heavy, so we’re just, through pain or pleasure, ready for whatever,” Biles told Tirico, 57, as they watched footage of the fall. “So what you mainly see here is that I just tried to over-rotate for the record, and I did exactly that and was almost right [coach Laurent Landi] out. But it was good.”
Owens spoke about his “warrior” wife during a Chicago Bears press conference on August 6 in Chicago. Before training camp, Owens had been in Paris to support Biles as she played for Team USA.
“Obviously the first day she had the calf injury and her ability to persevere through that and go out there and still dominate is just amazing to see,” he said. “Her resilience, and when she decided to come back, she achieved everything she set her mind to. Just being able to witness the training you go through every day.”
