Colts donate $10,000 in honor of Still’s daughter

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Colts owner Jim Irsay is donating $10,000 to Cincinnati’s Children’s Hospital Medical Center in support of the 4-year-old daughter of Bengals defensive lineman Devon Still.

Leah Still was diagnosed with cancer four months ago. Her father told reporters that doctors removed the entire cancerous tumor from her abdomen during surgery in September. Still has been selling his No. 75 jersey for $100 as part of the team’s campaign to raise money for the hospital. There’s a link on the Bengals website for those who want to donate without buying a jersey.

Irsay’s announcement came Friday, two days before Indy (4-2) hosts Cincinnati (3-1-1).
