INDIANAPOLIS (WHDH) -- Many Colts players already shaved their heads in an act of solidarity with Coach Chuck Pagano who's in the midst of a battle with leukemia.

On Sunday more members of the Colts organization cut off their locks.

A Colts cheerleader identified as Megan 'M' became the latest Colt to shave their head for cancer research.

Megan announced on November 11th that if fans donated at least $10,000 to leukemia research by today's game, the young beauty would shave her head.

Well, the fans responded with donations totaling over 22-thousand dollars by game time and Megan lived up to her word, cutting it all off on the sidelines during the third quarter.

Fellow cheerleader Crystal-Anne joined her with the new look.

Since Pagano's diagnosis the colts have risen to the occasion, raising more than a quarter of a million dollars for leukemia research through the sales of 'Chuckstrong' shirts and wristbands.
