It has been a busy summer for Jonathan Owens, who had success with the Chicago Bears during last season. His play impressed people around the league, prompting the Indianapolis Colts to bring him into the fold.
However, this year, he’s also dealing with some issues off the field. As the offseason carries on, the athletic world was shocked by an update from his partner, Simone Biles. The decorated Olympian revealed she had been through a near-fatal experience, prompting major question marks.
Simone Biles Makes Shocking Revelation About Her Health
One of the most decorated names in US Olympic history, Biles already has 11 Olympic medals and 30 World Championship medals to her name. Tied for second behind only Larisa Latynina in Olympic medals won by a female gymnast, she has a chance to overtake that number.
Awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2022, she continues to cement her place in history, breaking Alfred Jochim’s 90-year record by winning her eighth US Gymnastics title.
However, in recent years, injuries have also played a major part in her career. Removing herself from the 2020 Summer Olympics due to the “twisties,” she even won the Comeback of the Year award in 2024.
But according to her recent online activity, she may have experienced her worst incident this summer. Taking to Instagram, she left her fans extremely worried about the situation.
“I’m not one to normally share things like this because I value privacy in today’s age, but almost dying wasn’t on my bingo card earlier this week,” she wrote on Instagram Stories with a photo of her hospital bracelets.
Her husband, in the meantime, was away training with the Colts, far from the couple’s estate in Texas. Over the last week, fans were worried about her health after she added the caption, “Just what the doctor ordered,” on a story.
Now, as she shared a few more pictures of bouquets for her, as well as a picture of herself under a quilt, curious-eyed fans could have noticed a resting heart rate of 126.

“This was one of, if not the scariest experience of my life, especially since Jonathan was in Indy for practices. I’ve been in bed resting this week. I’ll explain sooner or later, but s/o to my close circle who reached out, checked in, visited & or sent flowers. Loooovveeee y’all.”
As the situation develops, we should have more information about the exact ailment affecting Biles. It doesn’t look like Owens will be returning anytime soon, as mandatory minicamp and offseason training are in full swing for the start of the NFL season.
