Favre, who played for the Jets for one season of his career, shared his thoughts on being late as a famous football player.

“It might be a little bit safer in Green Bay, and you might not be out at 2 o’clock in Green Bay,” he said on “4th and Favre.” “New York – being out at 2am is not a big deal. It’s a big city. Lots to do. Lots of places to eat. Lots of places to hang out.

“I don’t know this young man. It sounds like he was enjoying himself at a restaurant. Whether it was 2 o’clock or 8 o’clock, it’s sad that we have to talk about it more and more these days. But prayers for him and his family.”

Police released photos of a suspect who they said fired the firearm that led to Boyd being shot.

“The wanted person is described as male, medium complexion,” police said. “He was last seen wearing a black cap, black sweatshirt, black pants, multi-colored sneakers and carrying a black book bag.”
