Some encouraging news from Kris Boyd … the New York Jets cornerback says he’s on the road to recovery after he was shot on Sunday — and he’s now starting to breathe on his own.
The 29-year-old shared a photo of himself in a hospital bed on his Instagram Story on Wednesday, days after he suffered a gunshot wound to the abdomen during a fight in Manhattan.
“God is real, God is powerful!” Boyd wrote.
“I’m sorry, I have no words at the moment..Just grateful! I’m coming along, starting to breathe on my own now. Sincerely appreciate everyone!”
A video circulating on social media allegedly shows the incident — a group of men fighting in the street until gunshots popped off. Boyd was hit in the abdomen and was rushed to a local facility, where he remains.
The New York Police Department released photos of a man they believe is connected to the incident. Law enforcement said he was wearing an all-black outfit, along with a black cap and colored sneakers.
No arrests have been made at this time.
Boyd — a seven-year NFL veteran with two forced fumbles to his name — signed a one-year contract with the Jets in March … but had been out with a football-related injury prior to the incident.
