New York Jets player critically injured in early morning midtown Manhattan shooting | Fortune
"The shooting happened just after 2 a.m. outside a business on West 38th Street near 7th Avenue, according to the New York Police Department. A 29-year-old man was shot in the abdomen, police said. The man was taken to Bellevue Hospital, where he was in critical, but stable condition. There have been no arrests and the investigation is ongoing. Adams' office said that the man shot was Boyd."
"He signed with New York as a free agent in March and was expected to be a key part of a revamped special teams unit under new coach Aaron Glenn and special teams coordinator Chris Banjo. But Boyd was hurt during training camp practice on Aug. 2 and carted from the field. Boyd was regarded as a special teams standout during his first six NFL seasons, including most of the last two with Houston."
