Simone Biles Faces Relocation As Her Husband Jonathan Owens Joins A New Team In Another City
Blue and Orange are being exchanged for Green and Gold by Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens. Playing all of 2023, Owens was a member of the Green Bay Packers historic team, who finished as the 7th seed in the NFC and advanced to the second round of the NFL Playoffs.
Green Bay chose to give Owens a taste of free agency even though he had another strong season in the starting lineup. The Packers general administration didn’t really prioritize Owens, and he will get the opportunity to take some payback the following year.

Owens will play for the Chicago Bears for the next two seasons, which explains why.
Because they face each other twice a year in the NFC North division, the Bears are the Packers’ greatest rivals.

Starting in Week 7 of the previous season, Owens established himself as a vital member of the Green Bay starting lineup, providing leadership to a youthful defense while Darnell Savage battled injuries.

However, it was evident that the Packers were not happy with how their safeties performed. They have now granted Savage and Owens unrestricted free agency. In order to replace them, they turned around and gave Xavier McKinney a big contract.
Packers supporters say goodbye to Simone Biles
The most accomplished gymnast in American history, Biles, has been a part of Owens’ team since August 2020. Before being married on April 22, 2023, the couple became engaged in February of 2022. After the news, Biles wrote a farewell message to Packers supporters on social media.
just wanted to say thank you packer nation for embracing my husband & I 💚 green bay will always hold a special place in our hearts!

We’ll see if Owens and Biles travel to Chicago by automobile or plane. Green Bay is a little over a three-hour journey away.
