Just In: Simone Biles is getting unnecessarily ripped for wearing a Packers jacket to watch husband Jonathan Owens play for the And she said….

OK, I get it. I know the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers have a Midwest rivalry that’s decades old.

 

 

But you have to give Simone Biles a break here. She went to root on her husband, Jonathan Owens, at the Bears’ preseason game on Saturday, and she happened to wear a super-cool custom jacket with his image plastered all over it. We love when they support each other, right?

Except, the jacket was of Owens as a Packer. So there was all this silly backlash over it, as you’ll see.

This is dumb. First off, she was too busy winning Olympic medals to buy a custom Owens with the Bears coat. Second, dude has been a Bear for a minute. There aren’t enough photos of him in Chicago gear to make a new one.

 

I’m sure she’ll be rocking something more Bears-themed next time and we can move on.

Biles cheered on her husband as the Bears faced the Cincinnati Bengals during his team’s second preseason game on Saturday, Aug. 17

Simone Biles is returning the support she received from husband Jonathan Owens while at the Paris Summer Olympics!

After arriving home with four Olympic medals, Biles, 27, appeared at Soldier Field in Chicago to watch Owens, 29, and the Chicago Bears take on the Cincinnati Bengals during the team’s second preseason game on Saturday, Aug. 17.

The gymnast shared a photo on her Instagram Stories of her outfit for the game: a black and white oversized jacket which appeared to depict her husband in a No. 34 jersey — which he wore while playing with the Green Bay Packers. Biles sported a black bodysuit underneath the jacket, a black Prada bucket hat and a pair of black and white Nike shoes.

She captioned the photo, “Bear Down.”

She also showed off her other accessory — a black ankle brace on her left foot — in another Boomerang video. The gymnast sustained an injury to her calf during warmups at the Paris Olympics and powered through the injury in the qualifications and finals.
