Many prayers need to be sent towards Kris Boyd this week.

The New York Jets’ star cornerback is in critical condition after reportedly being sh0t in Manhattan. The team is currently on its bye week.

Boyd is said to be clinging to life at Bellevue Hospital, police sources tell the NY Post.

The incident, which has sent shockwaves through the NFL community, took place in the early hours of Sunday. Boyd was reportedly sh0t around 2 a.m. on West 38th Street, according to the publication.

Police officials have not formally identified the 29-year-old victim, but enough sources have revealed that it is Kris Boyd who was sh0t and is fighting for his life.

The 5-foot-11 defensive veteran is in his first season with the New York Jets after joining them this past offseason.


Before the Jets, Boyd spent the 2024 season with the Houston Texans, where he racked up eight tackles. He also spent the 2023 season with the Cardinals and Texans combined.

This shooting comes weeks after former New York Jets legend Nick Mangold passed away, weeks after he publicly revealed he needed a kidney transplant. Mangold was 41 years old.

Kris Boyd is just 29-years-old.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.


From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
