Owens, who is currently going through NFL training camp, has been granted a few days off to fly out to Paris to cheer on his wife. Owens recently opened up in an interview with People about being able to watch Biles soar to new heights in her career. \u201cIt&#8217;s super exciting just because I get a chance to see all the work that she puts in prior to, and you know what? Everything she goes through and dealing with the media and everything, and she still goes out there and does it,\u201d he said. \u201cIt&#8217;s just impressive and goes to her training mindset and consistency. That&#8217;s the biggest thing is how consistent,\u201d he added. When asked how he feels watching Biles compete from an &#8220;athlete&#8217;s perspective,&#8221; Owens said, &#8220;I love to watch it and I love to be out there and be a cheerleader.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Paris Olympics are set to begin on July 26th, airing on NBC and Peacock.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Simone Biles prepares to represent Team USA at the 2024 Paris Olympics, she took the time to wish her husband, Jonathan Owens, a happy birthday from afar.
