KTUL-8 in Oklahoma is reporting that former 49ers and Giants cornerback R.W. McQuarters was shot Friday night after leaving a friend’s house in north Tulsa.

McQuarters was reportedly shot in the back by a man described as wearing a ski mask. He was able to drive himself to the hospital, and is now in recovery mode.

The No. 28 overall pick in the 1998 draft, McQuarters spent 11 years in the NFL as a cornerback and return specialist. He last played with the Giants in 2008.

McQuarters finished his career with 14 interceptions, returning three for touchdowns.
