Colts' Wayne hosts fundraiser for Leukemia research

 After beating the Titans on Sunday, the Colts’ players enjoyed a day off on Monday, and Reggie Wayne used his to give back.

The star receiver hosted the 8th annual "Wishing on Stars" fundraiser Monday evening, which raises money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma society.

Wayne was joined by Mike Epps and a number of his Colts' teammates like WISH- TV analyst Anthony Castonzo and TY Hilton.

With leukemia hitting close to home for the Colts this season, Wayne has been impressed with how the city has embraced their fighting coach.

“Just the whole state of Indiana has taken him in, like he’s been here forever,” said Wayne.  “I remember when he first stepped into the locker room and had that first meeting, he just had a special halo that touched everybody.  You would think everybody knew him forever, but that’s just the type of guy he is.”
