Andrew Luck was supposed to be the heir of Peyton Manning with the Indianapolis Colts. However, after his surprising retirement from the NFL in 2019, the franchise never recovered.
In the last few years, Jim Irsay and the Colts tried to replace Luck with veteran quarterbacks such as Philip Rivers and Matt Ryan. Now, they picked Anthony Richardson in the 2023 NFL Draft as their big prospect for the future.
Currently, Andrew Luck is coaching at Palo Alto High School in California. During Thursday’s Night game between the 49ers and the Giants in Santa Clara, he had time for a spectacular appearance in a very famous costume.
