In a surprising turn of events, Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles found herself at the center of a sports fashion controversy during a recent Chicago Bears game. Biles, who was there to support her husband Jonathan Owens, sported a Green Bay Packers jacket that caused an uproar among NFL fans.

Many fans took to social media to express their disdain for Biles' fashion choice, deeming it a major sports fashion faux pas. The choice of wearing a rival team's jacket to a Bears game was seen as oblivious to her surroundings and insulting to her husband, considering the fierce rivalry between the two teams.

The eye-catching jacket was adorned with action shots of NFL safety Jonathan Owens, as well as a prominent green Packers logo on the shoulder pad. Completing her outfit, Biles donned a black Prada bucket hat, reflective shades, and a black Balenciaga purse. She was also seen walking along the field in a protective boot due to a calf injury sustained during the 2024 Paris Olympics last month.

Despite the backlash, some defended Biles, citing her status as one of the greatest Olympians and her unwavering support for her husband. Sports reporter Chase Daniel tweeted, "She's obviously supporting her husband Jonathan Owens, and she's one of the greatest Olympians, so she gets a pass. But it's still one of the oldest rivalries in all of football, and she's rocking #GoPackGo logos lol."

Biles even addressed the Chicago fans directly in a TikTok video for the NFL, where she pushed the controversial jacket off her shoulders, revealing a black sleeveless romper underneath. "What's up, Chicago? Go Bears," she confidently declared into the camera. The video was later captioned by NBC Sports as "The Bears' newest fan... Simone Biles!"

This is not the first time Biles has shown support for her husband. She recently defended Owens after fans criticized him for wearing her gold medals in a photo. Biles commented on a TikToker's video, saying, "Crazy thing is, I put my medal on every single one of my family members and took pictures. So don't ever make assumptions."

While the choice to wear a Green Bay Packers jacket to a Chicago Bears game may have raised eyebrows, Biles' unwavering support for her husband and her exceptional sporting achievements continue to make headlines. Despite the fashion misstep, it is clear that Biles remains a force to be reckoned with both on and off the field.
