Now the Colts are offering fans a chance to show their support, as well as raise funds for leukemia research, through the CHUCKSTRONG campaign.
Inspired by the hugely popular "LIVESTRONG" campaign associated with cyclist and cancer survivor Lance Armstrong, CHUCKSTRONG merchandise is available in the form of T-shirts, wristbands and posters. The public also can contribute through a blood drive, collection campaign and "wishes" program.
All the information on the campaign can be found on the Colts' official website.
We wish Chuck a speedy recovery. Hopefully he's back on the field with his team in the four-week span he set as his goal.
