Simone Biles was forced to miss out on cheering on husband Jonathan Owens for a second straight week Sunday.
The Olympic superstar was unable to watch on from the stands as the Chicago Bears took on the Houston Texans in her home state as she prepared to kick off the Gold Over America tour on Monday.
However, while the gymnast has missed the first two games of the NFL season, Owens assured fans it won’t be long until they see her on the sidelines.
Owens, who married the Olympic legend last year, revealed that Biles will be making an appearance at Solider Field as early as this month.
‘She’ll be here the 29th,’ the safety told the Chicago Bears’ YouTube channel. ‘She has a tour stop here that evening at 7. Literally perfect. So, she can come to the game at 12 and then boom, I’ll get to go watch her at 7. Pretty dope turnaround.’

The Bears were in Houston for their Week 2 matchup Sunday night but Owens explained that it would have been near-impossible for Biles to make the mad dash from California and back.
‘Her tour starts Monday and we play Sunday evening so that would be a tough turnaround to then get back to California,’ he said.
But he did insist that the seven-time Olympic gold medalist would be watching him from afar.
Biles had revealed to her adoring fans that she will not be able to attend as many of her husband’s NFL games this season due to her post-Olympic duties.
She is set to begin the Gold Over America Tour on September 16, which forced to her to bid farewell to Owens earlier this month as he headed back to Chicago for the kickoff of the season.
The tour, a traveling gymnastics exhibition which will feature a host of gymnastic stars including Biles and her gold-medal-winning USA teammates, Jade Carey, Jordan Chiles and Hezly Rivera, will kick off on September 16 in Oceanside, California.
It will make 30 stops across the United States, finishing in Detroit on November 3, which coincides with Week 9 of the NFL schedule – the midpoint of the regular season.

Although Biles couldn’t support her NFL beau in person last week, she was still rooting for him in spirit.
With the Bears down 17-3 with nine minutes left on the clock in the third quarter, the special teams player scored the franchise’s first touchdown of the season and the second of his career.
Responding to a clip of the play on X, formerly known as Twitter, the gymnastic icon wrote: ‘I ALMOST HD A HEART ATTACK.’
She also shared the clip on her Instagram story, adding: ‘LFG!! TOUCHDOWN FOR HUBBY.’
