New York City Mayor Eric Adams said on social media, "I am praying for New York Jets player Kris Boyd and his loved ones. Although we've gotten shootings to historic lows in our city, we must continue to work to end gun violence. Too many young lives have been tragically altered and cut short by this epidemic."   

Boyd signed a one-year contract with the Jets in March and has been on injured reserve since August.

He previously played for the Houston Texans, Arizona Cardinals and Minnesota Vikings, who drafted him out of Texas in 2019. 

The Jets (2-8) do not have a game on Sunday after the team's 27-14 loss to the New England Patriots on Thursday night.
