Who is Simone Biles’ Husband? Meet Jonathan Owens, Chicago Bears Safety

Simone Biles, often hailed as the greatest gymnast of all time, is gearing up to further cement her legacy at the 2024 Olympics. Unlike the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, where her family couldn’t be present due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Biles will now have the chance to perform in front of her loved ones in Paris. This includes her husband, who will witness her Olympic journey live for the first time.

Biles’ husband is Jonathan Owens, a 29-year-old NFL safety. Owens has made a name for himself in professional football after going undrafted in 2018 from Missouri Western. The couple met in 2020 on the exclusive dating app Raya. At the time, Owens was playing for the Texans and had little knowledge of Biles’ fame. “I didn’t know who she was,” Owens shared in an interview. “When I told her that, she liked it.”

The relationship blossomed quickly. They began dating and eventually tied the knot in 2023. With the 2024 Olympics on the horizon, Owens will be in Paris to cheer for Biles, having received a week-long exemption from the Bears to miss minicamp for the occasion.

Owens may look towering next to Biles, but he stands at 5-11, which is below the average height for an NFL player. In contrast, Biles stands at just 4-8, marking a 15-inch height difference between the two.

Throughout his NFL career, Owens has played for several teams including the Arizona Cardinals, Houston Texans, Green Bay Packers, and currently the Chicago Bears. He had his first big break with the Texans, becoming a solid special teams player and a reserve safety towards the latter part of his stint in Houston. It was also in Houston that he met Biles, who resides and trains in the city.

Owens initially played only seven games in his first three NFL seasons but found his footing by 2021. Below is a summary of his stats:

Year Team Games Tackles TFL Sacks INTs Pass defenses
2019 Texans 1 0 0 0 0 0
2020 Texans 6 0 0 0 0 0
2021 Texans 7 18 0 0 1 1
2022 Texans 17 125 0 1 0 4
2023 Packers 17 84 2 1 0 3
Total 48 227 2 2 1 8

Owens aims to continue his strong performance as he joins the Bears for the 2024 season. He signed a two-year contract worth up to $4.75 million, with $1.5 million guaranteed. The contract offers flexibility for the team, with a minimal dead cap hit if they decide to move on after the 2024 season.

Owens’ net worth is estimated to be around $2 million, whereas Biles has an estimated net worth of $16 million. With his new contract, Owens’ earnings are expected to rise. He had career earnings of approximately $3.25 million before signing the new deal, which could push his total earnings to close to $8 million by the end of the 2025 season.

As Biles prepares for another Olympic run, having Owens by her side will undoubtedly add a special touch to her journey, blending her monumental athletic pursuits with personal milestones.
