Jets' Kris Boyd back in hospital due to 'health issues' from shooting

Fri Nov 28 8:40pm ET
Field Level Media

New York Jets cornerback Kris Boyd has been hospitalized again, less than two weeks after he suffered a gunshot wound, while police continue to search for the gunman.

Boyd was shot in the early hours of Nov. 16 during a confrontation outside a Midtown Manhattan restaurant. Authorities said the round entered his abdomen, then migrated into his lung and lodged near the pulmonary artery, leading to multiple procedures.

He later posted on social media that he'd begun breathing without assistance, but on Wednesday night told his followers he'd been readmitted.

"I was released but had to return to the hospital due to my health issues," Boyd wrote in part. "I love and appreciate everyone of yall dearly who has prayed/reached out even if I can't get back to you.

"Head HIGH, God is not through with me yet!"

Jets coach Aaron Glenn said Friday the team was informed Boyd had experienced a setback and returned for treatment, noting the Jets are still gathering details. A team spokesperson offered no additional update.

The NYPD has identified a person of interest with help from a CrimeStoppers tip, and surveillance video reportedly shows the suspect fleeing on foot before entering a white BMW a few blocks away. No arrests have been made.

Police said the incident began with an argument between groups as Boyd, accompanied by teammates Jamien Sherwood and Irvin Charles and another friend, left the venue shortly after 2 a.m. Boyd was taken to Bellevue Hospital and initially listed in critical but stable condition.

The 29-year-old, who landed on injured reserve in August with a shoulder injury, has not played this season. Boyd previously spent time with the Vikings, Texans and Cardinals.

Player Notes
Blake Corum Nov 29 7:10am ET
Blake Corum

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum continues to carve out a modest role behind Kyren Williams. However, the bulk of his volume has been short-yardage runs, leaving him off the fantasy radar in most leagues. Over the last two weeks, Corum has a respectable 15 carries, but he has totaled just 34 rushing yards (2.27 yards per carry). He also has zero touchdowns and just one reception during that span. Williams remains the clear lead-back in Los Angeles, which leaves Corum as a bench-worthy running back in most fantasy leagues. Even against the Panthers, who have allowed the eighth-most rushing yards and seventh-most fantasy points to running backs in 2025, Corum isn't a dependable fantasy option. He ranks as the overall RB49 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

Colby Parkinson Nov 29 7:10am ET
Colby Parkinson

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson has caught a touchdown pass in each of his last three games while cementing himself atop the depth chart. The 26-year-old has been quite productive in the wake of Tyler Higbee (ankle) landing on injured reserve, and he's firmly on the fantasy radar for his Week 13 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Over his last three games, Parkinson has 10 catches, 96 yards, and three touchdowns, ranking as the overall TE3 in PPR leagues during that span. While that's admittedly a small sample size and the touchdown streak may not be sustainable, Parkinson is still a solid streamer for this weekend. It certainly helps that the Panthers have allowed the second-most receiving yards and fifth-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends in 2025. The 26-year-old ranks in the TE2 tier, but he can certainly be deployed as a starter this week in leagues with at least 12 teams.

Davante Adams Nov 29 7:00am ET
Davante Adams

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams has emerged as one of the most surefire touchdown threats in the NFL. He has an impressive five-game touchdown streak in the works, and during those five weeks, he has amassed a total of nine touchdowns. On the year, he ranks as the overall WR6 in PPR leagues with 48 catches, 631 yards, and 12 trips to the end zone. Adams was already one of the most talented receivers in the NFL, but he has taken his fantasy stock to the next level with his high-volume role inside one of the league's most prolific passing offenses led by MVP quarterback Matthew Stafford. Even while sharing volume with Puka Nacua, Adams has shown that he and the young receiver can co-exist inside this offense. Both are top-six receivers in terms of fantasy scoring this season and show no signs of slowing down. Despite Carolina allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025, Adams ranks as the overall WR6 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

Jordan Whittington Nov 29 7:00am ET
Jordan Whittington

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington remains off the fantasy radar in his role behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. Whittington is nothing more than a fantasy handcuff, and he's not a reliable fantasy option for Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Carolina Panthers. He's coming off a game against the Buccaneers in which he tied his season-high with three receptions, and he added 17 yards on a 61% snap share. Evidently, even when Whittington is having one of his best games of the year, he's still seeing relatively modest target and snap share numbers. Plus, this week, he's facing off against a Panthers defense allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025. Whittington can be left on waivers in all leagues. He ranks as the overall WR84 in RotoBaller's fantasy rankings for Week 13.

Kyren Williams Nov 29 6:50am ET
Kyren Williams

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams is coming off a disappointing fantasy performance, but he'll have an opportunity to bounce back during Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Carolina Panthers. Williams had just 12 carries for 46 rushing yards in his last outing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, struggling to maintain efficiency against a strong run defense while also losing some opportunities to Blake Corum. While Corum remains a thorn in his side for Week 13, he should improve his yardage and scoring efficiency. After all, the Panthers have allowed the seventh-most fantasy points, eighth-most rushing yards, and eighth-most rushing touchdowns to opposing running backs in 2025. Williams ranks as the overall RB10 in RotoBaller's fantasy rankings ahead of his matchup against Carolina.

From RotoBaller

Puka Nacua Nov 29 6:50am ET
Puka Nacua

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua continues to rank as a top fantasy option ahead of Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Carolina Panthers. Nacua has back-to-back seven-catch games, racking up 97 yards last weekend. He has gone without a touchdown in two consecutive contests but still ranks as the overall WR12 in PPR leagues during that span. For the full season, he has been the overall WR5. Nacua continues to reward fantasy managers with his high target share, route-running skills, and role in a high-powered passing offense led by MVP candidate quarterback Matthew Stafford. As long as Nacua and Stafford remain healthy, the former will be a must-start receiver in fantasy football. That remains the case in Week 13, despite Carolina allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025. This week, Nacua ranks as the overall WR5 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy rankings.

Matthew Stafford Nov 29 6:40am ET
Matthew Stafford

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford continues to rank as a strong fantasy QB1 as he carries his MVP candidacy into Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Carolina Panthers. Stafford continues to play at an elite level, amassing 25 touchdowns and zero interceptions over his last eight games. Between his prolific passing skills and the strong supporting cast around him, Stafford has not only cemented himself as a must-start quarterback in fantasy football, but he's also putting together a very strong bid to win MVP. He'll build on both of those campaigns against the Panthers, who have allowed the 11th-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks in 2025, but also the 13th-most passing yards. Stafford, who is a must-start regardless of matchup, ranks as the overall QB6 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

From RotoBaller

Christian Kirk Nov 29 5:40am ET
Christian Kirk

Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk has started to carve out a role for himself after being sidelined twice earlier in the season with hamstring issues. Kirk snagged his first touchdown of the season in Week 12's big win over Buffalo, and he snagged five of his six targets for 54 yards, his second-best total of the season. Kirk will look to build on that momentum this week in a big AFC South showdown against the Colts, who have been a top-10 matchup for wide receivers this season. Kirk's ceiling also gets a boost from the return of C.J. Stroud, after missing three games with a concussion. Kirk does have upside, but he has only caught 21 passes for 198 yards in his seven games this season, so he also has a low floor. The veteran slot receiver checks in as the WR77 in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings, meaning he can be left on the bench or waiver wires in most standard-sized formats this week.

From RotoBaller

Dalton Schultz Nov 29 5:40am ET
Dalton Schultz

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz has been very busy this season and emerged as a PPR contributor in his team's passing attack. Last week against the Bills, he only had one catch, snapping a streak of 10 straight games with multiple receptions to start the season. He had at least six catches in three straight games before last Thursday's letdown, and he'll look to bounce back in Week 13 as the Texans head to Indianapolis to face the Colts in a divisional matchup. The Colts have been a favorable matchup for tight ends, and Schultz will get C.J. Stroud back at QB after he missed three weeks with a concussion. Stroud and Schultz have a strong connection, which is enough to make Schultz the No. 13 TE in the RotoBaller Week 13 rankings. He's not quite a "must-start" in this matchup, but he definitely makes a strong option in 12-team leagues or if you need some help at the position due to injury or ineffectiveness of the other options available this week.

From RotoBaller

Jayden Higgins Nov 29 5:30am ET
Jayden Higgins

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins hauled in four catches on his team-leading nine targets in Week 12 against the Bills. The rookie racked up 38 yards and scored his fourth touchdown of the year, while playing the second-most snaps of any receiver for the third straight week. He has at least four catches in five of his last seven games and three touchdowns in his last five games, as he has emerged as the second receiver in the offense while working with Davis Mills. Mills will be replaced by returning starter C.J. Stroud this week against the Colts, and Higgins will look to continue his strong second half of his rookie season. He's only the WR42 in RotoBaller's Wek 13 rankings, so he's still not quite a starter in most formats. However, he's been trending up and has a good ceiling in a critical AFC South matchup in Indianapolis thi Sunday.

Matt Gay Nov 29 5:00am ET
Matt Gay

San Francisco 49ers kicker Matt Gay filled in reasonably well for the injured Eddy Pineiro (hamstring) in Week 12. In San Francisco's 20-9 win over the Panthers, Gay converted both of his extra point tries and nailed field goals from 29 and 47 yards out. Pineiro is listed as out on the 49ers' final injury report before their Week 13 showdown with the Cleveland Browns, so Gay will stay on as the team's kicker for at least one more week. Unfortunately, he won't be working in favorable conditions. Sunday's forecast calls for 25 to 35 MPH winds, rain, and snow in Cleveland. Gay will have to be at the top of his game to be of service to San Francisco. Fantasy football managers may want to look elsewhere to fill the kicker slot in their starting lineups for Week 13.

From RotoBaller

George Kittle Nov 29 4:40am ET
George Kittle

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle started slowly in his return from injured reserve, putting up an 8-75-1 line in his first three games back. Since Week 10, Kittle turned things around and has averaged seven receptions, 76.3 yards, and one touchdown per game. On Sunday, the 49ers travel to Cleveland to face the Browns, who just allowed a combined 11 catches for 105 yards to the Raiders' tight end group. The forecast in Cleveland calls for strong winds, rain, and snow, which could steer the 49ers into leaning on their run game. Kittle should remain a factor, especially when San Francisco closes in on the end zone. Over the last three weeks, Kittle is tied for the third-most targets and has the fourth-most receptions in the red zone. He projects as a TE1 and can be started in fantasy football lineups in Week 13.

From RotoBaller

Demarcus Robinson Nov 29 4:30am ET
Demarcus Robinson

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Demarcus Robinson caught his one and only target for an eight-yard gain in Week 12. It was his second straight game with a single reception, bringing the 30-year-old veteran's season-long production to 13 receptions for 163 yards on 23 targets. Even amid the rash of injuries to the 49ers' offense, Robinson failed to make an impact. That is unlikely to change, now that Jauan Jennings, Ricky Pearsall (knee), and George Kittle are all active again. In Week 13, San Francisco is on the road to face the Browns, who have given up the second-fewest receptions and receiving yards to opposing wide receivers in 2025. The forecast in Cleveland calls for 25 MPH winds, rain, and snow, making it unlikely that the 49ers' open up their passing attack and provide Robinson with more work. He can be left off of fantasy football rosters this week.

From RotoBaller

Ricky Pearsall Nov 29 4:20am ET
Ricky Pearsall

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) had another disappointing finish in Week 12, logging two catches for eight yards on three targets. It was another disappointing finish following his one-catch, zero-yard performance in Week 11 after a six-game absence while managing a PCL injury. Now playing with a healthy Jauan Jennings and George Kittle in the lineup and the offense flowing through Christian McCaffrey, Pearsall seems to be the odd man out in the 49ers' passing attack. On Sunday, Pearsall faces a Browns defense that has offered the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game and a weather forecast in Cleveland featuring 25 MPH winds, rain, and snow. With the team trends, matchup, and elements working against Pearsall, he projects as a WR5 in Week 13.

Jauan Jennings Nov 29 4:00am ET
Jauan Jennings

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings' touchdown on their opening drive in Week 12 salvaged what would have otherwise been a poor showing. Amid Brock Purdy's (toe) struggles against the Panthers, Jennings finished the game with five catches for 41 yards and the score on seven targets. Jennings now has a touchdown in three of the 49ers' last four games, and has at least four receptions per game going back to Week 7. In Week 13, San Francisco goes to Cleveland to face the Browns, who have allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game and second-fewest receptions and receiving yards to opposing wide receivers in 2025. Further dampening Jennings' prospects on Sunday is the forecasted inclement weather, which is expected to feature winds in excess of 25 MPH, rain, and snow. Fantasy football managers should exercise caution with Jennings, who ranks as a WR4 in Week 13.

Brian Robinson Jr. Nov 29 3:50am ET
Brian Robinson Jr.

San Francisco 49ers running back Brian Robinson Jr.'s fantasy value faces a hard cap in his change-of-pace role behind Christian McCaffrey. With the offense flowing through McCaffrey to the tune of nearly 25 touches per game, on average, those changes of pace are few and far between. To his credit, Robinson has been effective when on the field, logging 4.7 yards per carry in 2025. In Week 13, the 49ers travel to Cleveland to face the Browns. With strong winds, rain, and snow in the forecast, San Francisco will likely lean into the run game, which could provide Robinson a few more opportunities than usual. He can be avoided in most formats, but could be of use in deep leagues on Sunday.

Brock Purdy Nov 29 3:40am ET
Brock Purdy

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) got the win last Monday against the Panthers but delivered a dud to fantasy football managers. Purdy struggled outside of the short game, delivering just eight passes beyond 10 yards with a result of completion and three interceptions. Purdy insisted in postgame comments that his bout of turf toe was not to blame for his performance, and that his struggles were timing errors. Purdy did practice in full all week and carries no designation for what could be a challenging matchup in Week 13 against the Browns. The Browns, led by pass rusher Myles Garrett, have allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks. Strong winds, snow, and rain are in the forecast for Sunday, making Purdy's job all the more challenging. Purdy projects as a low-end QB2 in Week 13.

Christian McCaffrey Nov 29 3:40am ET
Christian McCaffrey

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey enters Week 13 leading the NFL in touches (298) and second in receptions (81). Amid the 49ers' injury-riddled season, McCaffrey has been relied on heavily to keep the offense moving. Another heavy workload is in store for the ninth-year veteran when San Francisco heads to Cleveland to face the Browns. The weather forecast calls for strong winds, rain, and snow, which points to an emphasis on the ground game. The Browns had been one of the stronger run defenses in the league, though they have softened as of late. Since their Week 9 bye, Cleveland has given up top-12 finishes in three consecutive weeks to running backs Breece Hall, Derrick Henry, and Ashton Jeanty. McCaffrey is a strong candidate to make it four in a row and should be locked into fantasy football starting lineups for Week 13.

David Sills Nov 29 1:00am ET
David Sills

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver David Sills V caught his first touchdown of the season in Week 12 against the New Orleans Saints, finishing with two receptions for 16 yards on three targets. Sills took advantage of superstar wideout Drake London (knee) missing the game, playing 69.6% of the snaps while setting a season high in receiving yards. The production was still modest, but it was positive to see the veteran see usage down near the goal line. London is set to miss at least one more game in Week 13, setting up Sills to see a healthy number of routes again against the New York Jets. The expected volume of routes makes Sills an option in deep leagues for Week 13.

From RotoBaller

Adonai Mitchell Nov 29 12:50am ET
Adonai Mitchell

New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell will look to be more in sync with quarterback Tyrod Taylor in Week 13 against a mercurial Atlanta Falcons defense. Mitchell has seen a solid target share since debuting with the Jets two weeks back, absorbing 24% of the passes thrown between Taylor and Justin Fields. However, the second-year pro connected on only three of his 13 targets (52 yards), despite consistently working open against opposing DBs. While Atlanta's back end is no walk in the park, Mitchell should continue to work in a sort of 1A/1B tandem with teammate John Metchie III, and see enough work to be a decent dart throw for fantasy as New York's offense attempts to gain traction. The Texas native has enough ability as a separator to make an impact, but fantasy managers in shallower leagues may want to give it some more time before slotting him into their lineups. Mitchell is RotoBaller's PPR WR63 ahead of Sunday's bout with the Falcons.
