When Simone Biles was a guest of the Houston Texans at a game two years ago, she took a picture with the Texans' cheerleading squad and tweeted: "In my next life I'll be an NFL cheerleader."

She didn't have to wait nearly that long.

The Texans invited the Olympic gymnast to join the cheerleading team for the Texans' game against the 49ers on Sunday at NRG Stadium.

This wasn't simply a photo opportunity, either. Biles took it seriously. She practiced with the team during the week and got decked out in the full cheerleader outfit as she blended in with her fellow cheerleaders on the sidelines.
