Simone Biles celebrates huge play by her Packers husband as Green Bay upsets Lions
Olympic gold medal gymnast Simone Biles was certainly in the holiday spirit watching her husband, Green Bay Packers safety Jonathan Owens, play against the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving in Detroit.
The Packers jumped out to a 20-6 first-quarter lead thanks to a play that Owens made.
On a second-and-12 from their own 24-yard line, Lions quarterback Jared Goff stepped up in the pocket to pass and was hit by linebacker Rashan Gary, forcing a fumble. Owens scooped up the ball and returned it 27 yards for a score for his first NFL touchdown.
Biles took to social media to celebrate, writing "THATS MY HUSBAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY MANS MY MANS MY MANSSSSS"
THATS MY HUSBAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY MANS MY MANS MY MANSSSSS🥹🥹🥹🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍 LFGGGGGGOOOOOOO! https://t.co/baxxoePhpB
