The man behind the mascot: ‘Blue’ shares message of love with kids

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The man behind Indianapolis Colts mascot Blue stopped by News 8’s “All IN” on Friday for his first on-camera interview not in costume.

Trey Mock joined News 8 hosts Phil Sanchez and Annessa Chumbley to talk about the “Choose Love” message he’s sharing at dozens of schools across Indiana.

During the presentation, Mock sheds the mascot costume and interacts with students face-to-face.

Mock said revealing his face encourages kids to “take off their own masks” and embrace being who they are. His message also teaches kids the importance of treating others with respect.
