Reggie Wayne Writes Letter To His Fans
Reggie Wayne and the Colts parted ways earlier this offseason. Upon doing so he ended his career after being with the Colts for 14 years. His career highlight stats include 1,070 catches, 14,345 yards and 80 receiving touchdowns.
Wayne wanted to make sure that he thanked all those who were a part of his career and those who helped get him there. He wrote a letter in the Indianapolis Star thanking the Colts organization and owner Jim Irsay, among others and the fans in and around Indianapolis for supporting him through the years.
With the 30th pick in the 2001 NFL draft, the Indianapolis Colts decided to take a chance on me. They allowed me to wear the horseshoe and represent the organization. With that pick they made my childhood dream come true. I bled blue and white for 14 years, and I was truly grateful for the opportunity to play a kids game week in and week out. Everyone who plays this game has to make a huge “sacrifice” to become the best football player they could possibly be. I laid it on the line every day and stayed committed to achieve the ultimate goal of winning a championship.
