Jim Irsay Would ‘Love’ for Andrew Luck to Come Out of Retirement

SGKing

The Indianapolis Colts are in the market for a Quarterback after Philip Rivers decided to call it quits on his career. While they’d like to add another veteran QB to the mix, they do have one special player who used to play for them. Irsay is still holding out for Andrew Luck to unretire, that would ideally be his first option.

“I don’t know if we’ll see that,” Irsay said. “I think he’s happy, he’s raising his daughter, he has a wonderful family, he’s a great Colt and he knows that he can come back any time he wants, but at the same time, we respect that he’s made that decision.” Irsay also said that they will not try to convince Luck to come back despite not having a clear answer at quarterback.

“We don’t want to be annoying by always saying ‘Hey’ … there’s no point to that,” Irsay said. “He knows we’d love to have him back, but only he could decide that, and right now, he’s retired.” Back in December, Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton was asked about Luck on NFL Network’s Good Morning Football. Hilton said Luck is enjoying the retired life and is not sure if he will ever return.

“Coming back? I don’t know. He’s pretty happy in retirement life. He’s just enjoying it and enjoying his daughter, Lucy,” Hilton said. You know, he’s never been a social media guy. He’s just always been behind the scenes. I don’t think we will (see him). He’s just enjoying himself. I’m happy for him.”

If you remember Colts fans Booed Luck as he walked off the field for the last time:

Don’t count on Luck coming out of retirement anytime soon.

Wishful thinking on Irsay’s part.
