"New York Jets special teams player Kris Boyd is in critical, but stable condition at Manhattan's Bellevue Hospital after sustaining a gunshot wound to the abdomen at a midtown restaurant early Sunday morning, the New York Police Department confirmed to ESPN. A Jets spokesman said the team is aware of the situation and will have no further comment at this time. The incident occurred shortly after 2 a.m. at the Sei Less restaurant on West 38th Street. No arrests have been made, according to the NYPD spokesman, who said an investigation is ongoing."

"Boyd, 29, was shot outside the restaurant after a dispute turned violent, with the gunmen firing two shots, the New York Post reported, citing law enforcement sources. The shooter fled the scene in a BMW X8 SUV, according to the newspaper. A Mercedes-Benz Mayback also fled the scene, the newspaper reported. Boyd was transported via EMS to Bellevue, per the NYPD."

"He's in his first season with the Jets after signing a one-year, $1.6 million contract in free agency, but hasn't seen the field because of a season-ending shoulder injury in the preseason. Boyd, a cornerback, was a seventh-round draft pick of the Minnesota Vikings in 2019. He spent four seasons with the Vikings before moving on to the Arizona Cardinals and Houston Texans."
