The NYPD released two photos of a suspect wanted in an investigation into a shooting that left New York Jets player Kris Boyd wounded on Sunday morning in Midtown Manhattan.

The photos showed a Black man in a black beanie. The suspect was not identified. The man was “wanted for an assault,” according to police.

“On Sunday, November 16, 2025, at approximately 2:06 A.M., in front of 156 West 38 Street, in the confines of the Midtown South Precinct, an unidentified individual discharged a firearm, striking a 29-year-old male victim in the abdomen,” police said in a post on Facebook. “The unidentified individual fled the location on foot traveling eastbound on West 38 Street to parts unknown.

“The sought individual is described as male, medium complexion. He was last seen wearing a black cap, black sweatshirt, black pants, multi-colored sneakers, and carrying a black bookbag.”

Boyd, 29, was later identified as the victim in the shooting.

A friend of the NFL veteran cornerback and special teams player said that Boyd was making progress in his recovery.

“He’s all good right now. He’s in good condition. He’s doing real good,” Eric Quander told the New York Post on Sunday.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams released a statement on the shooting as well.

“I am praying for New York Jets player Kris Boyd and his loved ones,” Adams wrote in post on X. “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.”
