Jonathan Owens Clashes with Teammate at Chicago Bears Camp

During a Chicago Bears training camp session, defensive back Jonathan Owens, husband of Olympic gymnast Simone Biles, engaged in a physical altercation with teammate Roschon Johnson after Owens delivered a late 'peanut punch' during a goal-line drill. Johnson reacted by throwing the ball at Owens and tackling him to the ground, leading to a brief but intense scuffle that was quickly broken up by teammates and coaches. Johnson downplayed the incident, attributing it to the competitive and high-intensity nature of football practices. This altercation was among multiple physical confrontations during the Bears' chippy practice, reflecting the team's aggressive preparation for the upcoming NFL season. Off the field, Owens and Biles recently moved into a custom-built home in Texas, and Biles has been in the public eye for her outspoken views on transgender athletes in women's sports. The incident underscores both the competitive atmosphere within the Bears camp and Owens' readiness to assert himself in his role on the team.
