Simone Biles' NFL Game Support Sparks Fan Debate

Simone Biles attended Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to support her husband, Jonathan Owens, before the Indianapolis Colts' Week 4 game. The couple’s pregame ritual, including a handshake and a "pinky promise," was shared on social media, drawing varied reactions from fans. Some comments suggested Owens's NFL status was dependent on his wife's fame, while others criticized the display as performative.

Owens, a safety for the Colts, signed a one-year deal with the team in March. He has recorded two tackles in three games this season. Biles, an 11-time Olympic medalist, has frequently attended Owens's games. The couple met on a dating app in March 2020, became public with their relationship later that year, got engaged in February 2022, and married in April 2023.

Biles recently shared her excitement about Owens's move to Indianapolis, expressing her happiness as long as he is safe, healthy, and enjoying the game. She plans to move to Houston later, closer to her husband's new team, and has described the stadium as stunning.
