Last night Colts franchise QB Andrew Luck shocked the NFL world when he abruptly retired from football after being “mentally worn down” following years of injury and rehabbing.

“I know that I am unable to pour my heart and soul into this position. … it’s sad, but I also have a lot of clarity in this.”

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter the Colts will not pursue $24.8 milluon owed by Luck in signing bonuses and are allowing him to keep the money as a parting gift for all the years of service he had with the team.
