A woman has been charged with attempted homicide in the stabbing of NFL wide receiver Terrelle Pryor at his Pittsburgh apartment early Saturday morning.

Pryor, 30, was reportedly at his Heinz Lofts apartment when he was stabbed in the shoulder and chest.

Allegheny County prosecutors and police said 24-year-old Shalaya Briston of Munhall was charged with attempted homicide and aggravated assault, while Pryor faces a charge of simple assault.

Although he was initially said to be in critical condition, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported Saturday afternoon that Pryor is now stable, citing a source.

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler tweeted that a close family friend of Pryor’s told him the family expects him to survive, adding: “Several family members are by his side post-surgery as doctors monitor his progress”.

Josina Anderson, also of ESPN, had said that Pryor was out of surgery and detectives were waiting to speak to him when he fully wakes up.
