"We're So Back": Simone Biles Travels to Support Husband Jonathan Owens at Preseason Game
Simone Biles showed support for husband Jonathan Owens at the Colts' preseason game, sharing affectionate moments on Instagram. The couple's appearance comes amid Biles' recent health scare and speculation about her gymnastics future.
Simone Biles Shows Support for Jonathan Owens at Colts Game
Simone Biles was in Indianapolis on Saturday to cheer on her husband, Jonathan Owens, during the Colts' preseason matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. The 11-time Olympic medalist shared several moments from the game on her Instagram story, including a kiss and a playful handshake with Owens before kickoff.
Biles, 29, posted a video of the Colts running out of the tunnel and a close-up of a fan's shirt that read "Bitch I'm a Colt." She also shared a photo of herself and Owens, captioning it "we're so back." According to Essentially Sports, Biles wrote "We're so back" over a post showing the couple sharing a high-five. The New York Post described the moment as a "signature handshake."
For the game, Biles wore a black cropped Colts T-shirt and black pants, paired with a small Chanel bag, as reported by the New York Post. Essentially Sports described her outfit as an all-black look with a cropped Colts tank top, parachute-style pants, and a quilted Chanel bag. She was also seen carrying a camera to capture moments from the day.
The game itself was a lopsided affair, with Atlanta dominating Indianapolis 34-6. According to Essentially Sports, the Falcons outgained the Colts 464-161 in total yards and scored on five of their first six possessions. Spencer Shrader accounted for all six Colts points with two field goals. Riley Leonard completed 7 of 14 passes for 62 yards in the first half, while Anthony Richardson Sr. finished 3 of 9 for 24 yards after halftime.
The Colts' next game is their season opener at home against the Ravens on Sunday, Sept. 13, as reported by the New York Post.
Biles' Recent Health Scare and Gym Visit
Biles' appearance at the game comes after she experienced a health scare in June, which she described as "one of, if not the scariest experience of [her] life." In late July, she shared that she underwent a procedure, for which Owens was present on his birthday. She did not disclose the reason for her hospital visits, according to the New York Post.
Recently, Biles posted social media content from the gym, including a photo inside the World Champions Centre in Texas, the gym owned by her parents, Ron and Nellie Biles. The photo showed a foam pit, beams, trampoline, and a banner reading "The World is Yours!" She also shared a picture of her old locker with beauty products, a hand-drawn poster, a Polaroid, and a goat stuffed animal, captioned "Just how I left it," as noted by Essentially Sports and the New York Post.
Gymnastics Comeback Speculation
Biles has not competed since the 2024 Paris Olympics, where she won four medals. In April, she said her chances of competing at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics were "consistent," though she has not confirmed she is training for that event. Fans have speculated about a possible comeback, but no official announcement has been made. If she competes in L.A., it would be her fourth Olympics since her debut at 19, as reported by the New York Post.

Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status counts the distinct outlets we found asserting it — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
