New York Jets cornerback Kris Boyd is in critical but stable condition after being shot in Midtown Manhattan early Sunday morning, according to officials.
The NYPD said a 29-year-old man was shot in the abdomen during a dispute outside an Asian fusion restaurant near West 38th Street and 7th Avenue. Police did not release the victim's name, but the Jets confirmed it was Boyd and declined to comment further.
He was taken to Bellevue Hospital.
Boyd signed with the Jets in March and has been on the injured reserve list since suffering a shoulder injury during practice in August.
Police have not announced any arrests.
The investigation is ongoing.
