"Aaron Glenn says he spoke to Kris Boyd shortly after the shooting on Sunday. Glenn says Boyd is upbeat, and the coach is happy that Boyd is going to come out of this OK," Cimini wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
Glenn was not sure when Boyd would be released from the hospital, but he is now listed as being in stable condition instead of critical, according to the NYPD. New York police released images the day after the shooting of a man seen in the shooting of Boyd. It's still not clear if there was a motive for the shooting.
Glenn shared that Boyd had been on his mind a lot since the shooting, and he was thinking about his family as well.
"The first thing I thought about, he just had a kid and I'm thinking about his wife, I'm thinking about his kid and I want to make sure that he's OK. And that's the only thing that really went through my mind … I'm happy the fact that he's going to come out of this thing really, really well," Glenn said.
