Michigan football: Former Wolverines defend Andrew Luck retirement

Andrew Luck might be one of the greatest quarterbacks never to complete his career. At 29-years-young, Andrew has faced and fought through the kinds of injuries that it takes others a lifetime to suffer, and he finally had enough. And one of Michigan football‘s best supports him.

“For the last four years or so, I have been in this cycle of injury, pain, rehab, and it’s been unceasing and unrelenting,” Luck said in a press conference following the Colts preseason game against the Chicago Bears.

That never-ending cycle of pain has, according to Andrew, “taken my joy of this game away,” and Luch had enough, he said he’s finally choosing his life over the football life.
