Indianapolis Colts linebacker Jonathan Owens and his wife, Olympic gymnast Simone Biles, said goodbye to Chicago in the worst way possible: with their Porsche stolen by “three men in masks” right before they moved. This isn’t just a random theft; it happened before Owens officially joined the Colts this past March after leaving the Bears.

The Brazen Theft

Biles herself shared the shocking details in a social media video on Tuesday, describing how “three men in masks came to our house and stole my Porsche.” While the exact timing of the theft isn’t clear, and whether it was a full home invasion is still ambiguous from her account, the car *was* recovered. It’s a chilling reminder of the risks these athletes face off the field.

Owens’ New Chapter, Old Trouble

For Owens, who’s 31 years old and has played in 84 regular season games with 35 starts across his time with the Cardinals, Texans, Packers, and Bears before landing with the Colts, this incident makes him the *latest known NFL victim* of a theft at his home. It’s a stark pattern when you start hearing about players dealing with this kind of violation, and it makes you wonder what teams and the league are doing to protect their guys.

This wasn’t some on-field fumble; this was a personal violation for Owens and Biles as they tried to transition to a new city. It shows a real issue when NFL players are becoming targets like this. You have to hope the league and law enforcement can crack down hard to keep our athletes safe.
