Andrew Luck appears to be progressing extremely well as he continues to get back to playing shape following a lost 2017 season that began with surgery last January.
Not only is he throwing with velocity, but Luck had no issues practicing Thursday and Friday before taking a scheduled day off Saturday. On Sunday he was asked how he felt physically, and his response was very positive.
“No pain,” Luck said, via the Indianapolis Star. “Soreness, tiredness, for sure, and stresses are my arm that are different. [There are] stresses, shoot, on everybody’s body at this camp that are different.”
He also noted that his arm is “responding well” to the work he’s put in the first two days of training camp.
For Luck, the Colts and their fans, this is the best possible news they could hope to hear right now. For a while this spring, nobody really knew for sure whether he’d be able to throw a football without pain. So, the ball has been moved toward the goal line here. Now it’s time to see if Luck can score with a Week 1 start.
