Boyd remained at Bellevue Hospital, according to multiple reports. Police released two photos of the suspect they were looking for for discharging a firearm.
Boyd’s Jets teammates, meanwhile, kept the cornerback and special teams players top of mind at practice.
Defensive end Harrison Phillips said some teammates talked to Boyd.
“I know a lot of prayers were answered,” Phillips said. “It’s a blessing to know that he’s in stable condition and that he’s surrounded by his family and that he has a lot of support around him. Certainly from where the news was first reported, there’s a lot of panic and a lot of emotion. I don’t want to make light of it, but I think it makes us a little more grateful to know that he’s stable now.”
