Rumor: Andrew Luck to meet with Colts for possible return

Pete44 : 2/4/2021 8:58 am
There are rumors that Andrew Luck is going to meet with the Colts over the next few days for a possible return. He is feeling better. It is unclear who initiated this meeting or if Luck really wants to come back, but an interesting development in what will be a fascinating off-season for the QB position around the NFL.
wouldn't that be some stuff...

this offseason is going to be very entertaining.
I hope he returns

He is one player I was very sad to see walk away at such a young age. Mega talented and was still ascending aside from the injuries. He's a legit franchise QB example.
Questions on how  
Sammo85 : 2/4/2021 9:03 am : link
he'll hold up if he does, but wouldn't be disappointed to see it. I liked watching him play and respect his game.

My guess is the body healed up a bit which helped fuel a resurgent desire/love for the game a bit, but do worry about commitment if he gets nicked up again.

Think Colts would be smart to consider drafting a QB prospect still if one drops.
Unlike for most of the time he was there

that team is pretty damn well built. Could become real contenders with Luck back if he hasn't lost much.

Costanzo retired though so bringing in an LT would be of the utmost.
Interesting.

Yeah the year away probably did as much for his head as his body.
Best wishes for him.
Wow, he'll be 32 already next season  
JonC : 2/4/2021 9:10 am : link
older than I thought.
that would be interesting  
KDavies : 2/4/2021 9:11 am : link
Colts actually have a good OL now, so that would help out Luck quite a bit
Easy dude

True but in todays NFL that is easily another 8 years on the field for a QB.
Always thought he'd take a season or two off

heal up, and come back. Too much money to leave on the table.
I suspect this is why Indy has been

relatively quiet in all of the QB trade talk. Irsay had made comments about Luck in the past couple of weeks, so I'm not surprised that this could happen.

Their Oline  
TommyWiseau : 2/4/2021 9:59 am : link
is way better now although they need to invest in a LT. Maybe Luck can convince Costanzo to come out of retirement?

Same, absolutely love the way Luck plays the game.
at least they have some OL talent now to protect him. I'm

still not sure that's a great idea though. Every fighter who retires thinks they have one more fight left in them.

Peyton did it with a worse injury (and even with the lack of arm strength), I don't doubt Luck can come back and be as good as he was.
Great news

It was sad how he left just as the Colts had finally begun building a quality roster. Let’s just hope that he wants to return to the Colts and that he isn’t seeking his release to sign elsewhere.
Now there's a QB solution I hadn't thought of.  
FStubbs : 2/4/2021 11:27 am : link
JB_in_DC is right about them needing to replace their LT, but Luck would be coming to a better team than he left. Maybe the 2 years off let him heal his nagging injuries.

I guess he'd take a 1 year, $25 million deal like Rivers had to see if he's still got it?
Glad to hear this.  
CV36 : 2/4/2021 11:31 am : link
With the turmoil in Houston, Jacksonville starting over and the Titans becoming more average I could see them walking away with the division if he returns. I am glad he healed up and is considering a return.

The Colts with the Luck of old is a top three contender, IMO.
Luck has to be one of the few guys...  
bw in dc : 2/4/2021 12:36 pm : link
that there is close to unanimous opinion - great franchise QB, great person.
Not a Shock  
MaraMan : 2/4/2021 1:20 pm : link
People in Indy will tell you this has been a strong possibility for a while. This is why they let him keep his prorated signing bonus and roster bonus. Colts could have recouped over 24 million but let Andrew keep it with the hope he would return.
