VIDEO: Colts Fans Boo Andrew Luck Over Retirement News as He Leaves Field After Preseason Game
By Mark Powell
Colts fans won't be able to live this one down anytime soon. After the news that Andrew Luck will retire at the age of 29 spread through Lucas Oil Stadium, some Colts supporters dared to boo the four-time Pro Bowler.
What the hell is this, Indianapolis? Surely this isn't representative of all Colts fans, as many (hopefully) understand the commitment and sacrifice Luck gave the franchise since being drafted No. 1 overall. While Luck has yet to speak publicly about the reported decision, retiring at the age of 29 wasn't in his career plan upon being selected in 2011.
Luck devoted his entire playing career to the Colts, even being named Comeback Player of the Year in 2018. While his choice to leave the game he loves behind is certainly a surprising decision, it isn't something we should second-guess or laud him for.
