New York Jets cornerback Kris Boyd has been hospitalized for a second time, just weeks after being shot in midtown Manhattan. In an Instagram post, Boyd revealed that he had to return to the hospital due to ongoing health issues, thanking fans for their support and prayers. The 29-year-old defensive back was shot in the abdomen on November 16, just after 2 a.m., about halfway between Madison Square Garden and Times Square. He was taken to Bellevue Hospital and has been recovering since. Boyd's condition has been a concern for the Jets, who placed him on the season-ending injured reserve list in August due to a shoulder injury. He signed a one-year contract worth $1.6 million with the team in March. Jets coach Aaron Glenn confirmed that Boyd had to return to the hospital, but did not provide further details. The New York police are still searching for a suspect in the shooting, with surveillance images released last week. Boyd's Instagram post, which has since disappeared, expressed his gratitude for the support of his fans and teammates. He remains hospitalized, but is expected to continue his recovery. The Jets will likely provide an update on his condition in the coming days.
