What you should know about Jonathan Owens, the new safety for the Green Bay Packers and the partner of the Olympic gymnast Simone Biles

With the Green Bay Packers, Jonathan Owens is extending his illustrious NFL career after a breakthrough year with the Houston Texans. At Lambeau Field on Friday, Owens, who has been released four times since 2019, signed a contract. He wasn’t the only one there. The most accomplished gymnast in American history and his wife, Simone Biles, joined him in Green Bay.

In place of returning free safety Darnell Savage, Owens will likely start at strong safety. Strong safety Adrian Amos had been the team’s starter for the previous four seasons, but the Packers didn’t sign him this summer. The organisation has handed safety James Wiggins the number 31 that belonged to Amos, who is still a free agent.

Jonathan Owens was he selected?

No, after graduating from Division II Missouri Western State University in 2018, he was not picked. He was signed by the Arizona Cardinals as an undrafted free agent, but the ACL injury he sustained during OTAs forced him to miss the whole season. Before the 2019 season began, Owens was freed in an effort to make a return. In September of that year, he joined the Houston Texans and has been with them ever since, despite spending the most of the first three seasons bouncing between the practise squad and the active roster, including being released three times.

Simone Biles: Who is she?

She is among the best gymnasts in the discipline’s history.

With 25 gold medals overall and 19 from World Championships, Biles is the most decorated gymnast in the sport’s history.

She has acted in Olympic productions. Seven Olympic medals won by Biles are a gymnast from the United States tied for the most. At the 2016 Rio Olympics, she took home four gold medals, including the individual all-around.

At the 2020 Olympic Games, Biles added two more medals, but she also gained greater notoriety for talking openly about her struggles with mental illness after withdrawing from portions of her competition.

In 2022, President Joe Biden presented Biles with the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
