"They've been so helpful in and out of practice, sending me videos and all that and even just today, they're like, 'Let's go over this,'" she said. "So, they're so helpful in telling me how the crowd's going to react and how loud it's going to be so to not pay attention because you can get distracted."
Simone has been really looking forward to this big moment. She tweeted just before the Texans’ Monday Night Football defeat of the Baltimore Ravens last month, "Honestly how fun would it be to be an NFL cheerleader." That's when the squad took notice and invited her to join them!
