Jets Cornerback Kris Boyd Posts Updates from Hospital Bed Amidst Recovery from Midtown Shooting
New York Jets cornerback Kris Boyd has been sharing updates about his condition with fans on social media, just days after being shot in a Midtown Manhattan shooting incident. The 29-year-old athlete posted an Instagram story from his hospital bed, revealing he is "coming along" and starting to breathe on his own again. His post also conveyed gratitude towards everyone for their support.
Boyd's condition was initially reported as critical but stable following the early Sunday morning shooting near West 38th Street and 7th Avenue. The police investigation revealed that the incident was a result of a dispute, although it is still unclear whether Boyd and the alleged shooter knew each other. NYPD officials described the gunman as wearing a black cap, sweatshirt, pants, multicolored sneakers, and a backpack.
Boyd had been on the Jets' injured reserve list since August due to a shoulder injury. The police have not announced any arrests in connection with the shooting, and the investigation remains ongoing.

. I mean, just imagine being shot while you're trying to recover from an injury 
. Poor Kris Boyd, I hope he's on the mend soon 
. It's crazy how quickly things can take a turn for the worse in New York City 
. And now, with no one arrested yet 
, it's like the whole city is on edge 
. Can't help but think that our hospitals and emergency services are stretched thin enough already 
. Let's all send him our positive vibes and hope for a speedy recovery 
!
what's up with a backpack? are they looking for anyone specific or just following up on a random dispute? hoping Kris Boyd gets back to playing football soon, but let's not rush into anything 
, just wanna wish him speedy recovery 
, hope he get back on field ASAP 
! 
hospital bed can't be fun for anyone 
, but at least social media keep us updated 
. NYPD got their work cut out for them 
, need to figure out who gunman was and why they do that 
. Fingers crossed Kris get back home safe & sound 
, but it's awesome he's sharing updates with his fans to keep them posted 
. Keeping my fingers crossed! 
I mean, we all know he's been having some issues with his shoulder, but shooting him in Midtown just feels like a senseless tragedy 
. The NYPD is taking their time on this one, and that's fair, investigations can be slow 
. But seriously, how many times do we have to witness this kind of violence before we get some answers? 
so sad to hear about Kris Boyd 
I know how scary hospital stays can be, sending positive vibes his way 
️
it's crazy how something like this can happen in the city that never sleeps, but I guess you just have to be aware of your surroundings when out and about. 
also super grateful for all the love and support Kris is getting from fans and friends right now 
, it's a great reminder of the power of community 
keep us updated, Kris! 
gotta root for him, Jets fan for life
