Shocking. I'm happy he made the decision to step away if that's really what he wants. Most would continue playing by default.
TBH I think he'll be coming back within a year or two.
I had to check many times to make sure this wasn't a joke or fake but it appears legit.

Filed to ESPN: Andrew Luck has informed the Colts he is retiring from the NFL, per source. There will be a press conference Sunday to make it official, but Luck is mentally worn down, and now checking out.

I would not be surprised if he came back when he is pain-free. I think we all can understand why he would not want to play through pain again.

I got the alert last night and was stunned. My leagues Voxer chats were lighting up. It's really tragic the toll his body took from all those weekly beatings.
On a side, yet somewhat related note...anyone who still thinks Kyler Murray's size isn't a concern is fooling themselves.

Lack of class by fans booing him off the field as the news broke...lack of respect for all he did.

If anyone else was wondering , he's apprently already made aprox 97 mil throughout his career .
For me, the timing is more suspect than the actual act of retiring.
@SmittysRant
Good for him. Couldn't have been an easy decision. Until you lose it, you don't know how important your health is.

That is what I was saying. I just couldnt understand why he would wait until this long into the off-season/pre-season to make his decision. I understand that he is injured again, but did he really expect to go through this year without dealing with some sort of injury? Did he have his mind set on retiring once he got hurt again? Was he going to retire mid-season if he made it through the pre-season injury-free and if he got hurt in week 2 (for argument sake), was that going to be the breaking point for him?
The time is just weird and really didnt leave the Colts in a good position.
