Simone Biles rocking husband Jonathan Owens' jersey at Packers vs. Bengals preseason game
The queen of gymnastics Simone Biles is in the Queen City for the Green Bay Packers' first preseason game of the 2023 NFL season.
Biles, fresh off her triumphant return to competitive gymnastics less than a week ago, was on the sidelines Friday ahead of the Packers' contest against the Cincinnati Bengals at Paycor Stadium.
She later was spotted in the front row and had a police escort on her way out.

The two shared a nice moment on the field after Green Bay's 36-19 win and the Olympic icon gave Packers fans a "Go Pack Go."

Biles, 26, and Owens, 28, married in April at the Harris County Courthouse in Houston and then had a destination wedding May 6 in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, with friends and family.
Less than a week after their wedding in Mexico, Owens signed with the Packers.
Owens went undrafted out of Division II Missouri Western State University in 2018 and has had a long journey to get to this point.
But a breakout 2022 season with the Houston Texans led to a new start in Green Bay. And he's been making the most of it so far in training camp as he looks to capture a starting spot in the secondary.

Biles, who could be a regular around Green Bay this season, is also having a new start of sorts with gymnastics. After taking nearly two years off from the sport, the most decorated gymnast in American history could be making another run at the Olympics.
She is a 19-time world champion and seven-time Olympic medalist.
Social media loved seeing Simone Biles at the Packers game

I think the Packers legitimately think they signed Simone Biles and not her husband 😂 https://t.co/QBAepN4zN4
