Jonathan Owens may be an NFL safety, but this weekend, he looked every bit the star off the field. Simone Biles took center stage with the iconic “Riders Up!” call at the 2025 Kentucky Derby. Owens, decked out in a matching purple fit, also turned heads and lit up social media. The power couple owned the red carpet, and their effortless chemistry had fans swooning. Biles commanded the moment, but Owens? He captured it. From filming his wife’s big moment to sharing laughs behind the scenes, he played the perfect leading man. Then came the surprise: Owens did something that left fans both amused and intrigued. What did happen? Let’s just say, it might involve more velvet than helmets…
Well, well—Jonathan Owens didn’t just turn heads with his purple suit. He may have also emerged as an unexpected Kentucky Derby oracle. Speaking to NBC Sports at the event, the NFL safety said,
“I’ve been three for three… I went three for three.” He then revealed his uncanny fourth prediction: “And the fourth race I’m like ‘I’m not gonna bet on this one,’ so I start telling people, and they’re like ‘Who to bet on?’ and I’m like ‘Bet on 2.’ And then 2 wins, and it’s just like—it’s kind of crazy.” And when NBC’s Rebecca Lowe asked him for his prediction for May 3 race, he said, “ I can’t say them here, I gotta keep them to the family.”
Well, he didn’t tell them on camera, but it seems his other prediction has come true. NBC’s Rebecca Lowe posted on Instagram: “And @jowens you were right! Number 18!!! Another win! ” Owens reshared the story. Is this the NFL’s newest psychic in velvet?
The story is developing!
