Owens reposted a photo of Biles on his Instagram Stories with the caption, “Isn’t she beautiful?”
Fans received the outfit choice well this time.
In August, before a preseason match against the Cincinnati Bengals, the gymnast annoyed some by wearing a jacket with Owens’ image while playing for the Green Bay Packers. Unbothered by the criticism, Biles later shared the photos on social media with the message “Bear down.”

Owens signed a two-year contract the bears in March after spending a season with the Packers. He was excused from the start of training camp this summer to support his wife as she set out to make history at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.
Biles won four medals, including three gold, bringing her total Olympic medal count to 11 – the most of any American female gymnast.
