Did they know he was retiring or did they just Boo him for being hurt?

I’ve been a Colts fan for all of my 41 years and this is the most shocked I’ve been. Just unbelievable.

In the back of my mind though, there’s a feeling that maybe I should have seen this coming.

He’s 29, financially set for life, just got married, wife is pregnant. He’s never been what I would call a football junky. Plus, you have the cryptic comments from Irsay the past 2 years, about Andrew “working through this”, and the space between the ears comment. I think maybe Irsay had an idea something like this may happen.

The timing is just awful though. Week 3 of the preseason? Damn. I now believe he’s been healthy all along and the Colts were just giving him time to try and work through this. Obviously, if his hearts not in it, he can’t continue. Not in the NFL.

I wish him the best. Great dude. Awful timing though.

Luck is a smart dude...wanted to be an architect.

He's like...**** this shit...I've got more money than I'll ever need.

Luck owes no one anything except to himself and his loved ones. The fans aren't going to be taking care of him if he suffers any more crippling injuries. They'll move on and cheer on someone else to beat themselves up for their entertainment. Fans are owed nothing. Kick rocks.

Damn

I will never bitch again if this franchise drafts a fatty to protect Pat in the first rd.

Pat running and extending plays terrifies me bc of shit like this. It appears Wentz is 2018 Luck.

KChiefs1 08-24-2019 08:43 PM

His press conference is sad.

JakeF 08-24-2019 08:43 PM

Will the colts sue him to get signing bonus money back?

He’s been on the sidelines for all three games and didn’t get booed before.

Obviously they knew.

I imagine the news spread like wild fire in the stands.

There is no server and/or software upgrade capable of keeping this place from crashing were Mahomes to pull a stunt like this. If red flag laws were to be passed, we’d all have our guns taken away and thrown into padded rooms.

I really don’t want to even think about it, because Chiefs.
