In the early hours of Sunday morning, chaos exploded on the neon-lit streets of Midtown Manhattan<\/strong> \u2014 and at the center of the violence lay New York Jets cornerback Kris Boyd.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

On November 16, 2025, the Jets player suffered a gunshot wound.<\/strong> Video footage captured moments after the 29-year-old NFL star was shot has surfaced online, showing the immediate police and first responder presence<\/strong> at the scene that is now cordoned off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gunfire Outside Celebrity-Favorite Sei Less Shakes Midtown<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to law enforcement and sources close to the scene, the incident<\/u><\/a> unfolded shortly after 2 a.m. on West 38th Street near Seventh Avenue, just outside Sei Less<\/strong> \u2014 a well-known Midtown Asian-fusion hotspot frequented by celebrities and nightlife regulars.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though police initially did not identify the victim\u2019s name, multiple sources later confirmed that the man struck by gunfire was in fact Boyd. He had reportedly been standing with a group of friends outside the upscale venue when an argument broke out.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Law enforcement sources told The Post<\/em> that the dispute quickly turned volatile<\/strong>, ending in two shots being fired. One of those bullets struck Boyd in the abdomen, sending the 5-foot-11 defensive back collapsing to the pavement.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the chaos unfolded, the gunman fled the scene in a BMW X6 SUV<\/em>, while a second vehicle \u2014 a high-end silver Mercedes-Benz Maybach<\/em> \u2014 was also seen speeding away moments later. It remains unclear whether Boyd was the intended target.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Witnesses on the scene have been uncooperative with investigators<\/strong>, leaving authorities with limited firsthand accounts of what sparked the confrontation or who may have been involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, dramatic images captured in the aftermath show a Rhino GX \u2014 a luxury armored SUV valued at up to $300,000<\/strong> \u2014 parked near the cordoned-off area as police swarmed the scene. Boyd reportedly drifted in and out of consciousness before being rushed to Bellevue Hospital, where he was listed in critical but stable condition<\/strong> as of Sunday evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The New York Police Department (NYPD) has confirmed no arrests<\/strong> have been made, and the investigation remains ongoing<\/u><\/a>. Boyd joined the Jets this year after previous stints with the Minnesota Vikings, Arizona Cardinals, and Houston Texans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently on injured reserve due to a preseason shoulder injury, Boyd has yet to play a snap this season. Despite his sidelined status, he remains a part of the team\u2019s roster, having signed a $1.6 million contract<\/strong> for 2025. Over the course of his NFL career, Boyd has earned more than $8 million, according to Spotrac.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
