Kris Boyd, a cornerback for the New York Jets, was hospitalized in critical condition after being shot in the abdomen early Sunday morning in Midtown Manhattan. Police received a 911 call about the shooting at approximately 2 a.m., and Boyd was subsequently transported to Bellevue Hospital. Although the NYPD did not confirm his identity, the Jets acknowledged the situation and stated, "We are aware of the situation involving Kris Boyd and will have no further comment at this time," according to ABC News, Reuters, and The Hill.

The investigation into the shooting is ongoing, and police have yet to make any arrests. The shooting has sparked conversations about gun violence in New York City, with Mayor Eric Adams highlighting the need to address this issue despite overall crime rates decreasing. "Too many young lives have been tragically altered and cut short by this epidemic," he stated, according to BBC and The Hill.
