INDIANAPOLIS, IND —  The family of a truck driver who was allegedly brutally assaulted by former football star Mark Sanchez outside an Indianapolis bar has given an update on his condition.

“He’s OK,” family members of the 69-year-old grease truck driver, identified solely by his initials PT, told The Post late Sunday.

“We are talking to lawyers first. We want to be careful what’s said. We appreciate that,” the family said, noting they were in shock that the former Jets quarterback attacked their loved one.

Grisly photos of the alleged victim showed him in a neck brace in his hospital bed with gnarly, deep wounds to his cheek and jaw.

“His family says he was cut in the fight and it went through his cheek and hit his tongue,” Fox59 anchor Angela Ganote said, sharing the pictures on social media.

The driver reportedly got into an altercation with Sanchez shortly after midnight on Saturday morning, when he had parked his truck in an alley to collect cooking oil from a nearby hotel, according to an affidavit seen by Fox59.

Sanchez, 38, allegedly approached him, smelling of “alcohol” and slurring his speech, according to the affidavit.

“PT did not have his hearing aids in because his truck is very loud when he is exchanging the frying oil for the hotel, so he had to lean in close to Mr Sanchez to hear him,” the affidavit said.

“When PT leaned in, he stated that Mr Sanchez smelled of alcohol and his speech was slurred,” the affidavit continued.

Sanchez allegedly slammed the driver against the wall and threw him to the ground before the driver stabbed the 6-foot-2, 230-pound Fox Sports analyst in self-defense.

The ex-Jets quarterback was initially hospitalized in critical condition, but has since stabilized and been released.

Sanchez was discharged from the hospital Sunday morning after being treated for stab wounds to the chest, TMZ reported.

He was promptly transferred to central booking at the Marion County Jail, where he’s been charged with public intoxication and battery while he was in the hospital.

He reportedly posted his $300 cash bond before being booked.

Sanchez told police he had no memory of the incident, according to an arrest affidavit.
