Jonathan Owens — and his Olympic superstar wife Simone Biles — are leaving Green Bay after just one season, with the safety agreeing to a two-year contract with the Chicago Bears.
According to multiple reports, Owens is set to sign with the Bears on a two-year, $4.5 million deal that will see the high-profile pair leave Green Bay.
The former Texans and Cardinals player, 28, was heading into free agency but has now found a landing spot.
Owens and Biles met on celebrity dating app Raya in 2020, when she was already a four-time Olympic gold medalist and considered one of the greatest gymnasts of all time.
The pair met online during the height of the coronavirus pandemic while Owens was at the Texans, and Biles got her chance to continue Olympic dominance delayed a year.

Biles and Owens became engaged in 2022 and were married last April.
Owens came under fire late last year for admitting he didn’t know who Biles was before the pair met.
The backlash for Owens was so heavy that Biles had to intervene by writing ‘STOP BRINGING ME UP’ on her Instagram story followed by 14 smiley face emojis and ending with ‘working on it for the new year’.
The comments did not mention Owens directly, but were seen as Biles’ official response to the controversy.
Owens eventually caught on to how dominant his now-wife was on the vault and balance beam.
A source told DailyMail.com last June that Biles’ return to gymnastics was much celebrated thanks to Owens convincing her to do it.
It’s unclear if Biles knew who Owens was when they also played at Raya.

Owens and Biles currently live in a $2 million home in the Houston area, but construction is underway on a mansion the couple is building.
Biles has been giving glimpses into the unfinished home on Instagram, including a massive walk-in closet.
Construction on the home has been ongoing for about a year with an unconfirmed expected completion date.
When the project broke, Biles posted a photo of Owens and herself with the caption ‘a home is made with love and dreams…cheers to breaking ground’ on Instagram.
The waterfront home has also shared photos of the home’s hallways and her ideas for ‘frames with sliding doors’ to separate different rooms.
