Interesting article on how many of the Colt players found out about Luck's retirement. I know everyone loves Andy as a person but I'll go out on a limb and say that this was all about him, not about the team in any way. If it was, he wouldn't have taken the chance that it comes out the way it did. This has to be tough on the locker room, to learn like this. He told his friends, like any of us would but not the team in general. Cared about his friends (he knew it mattered and would be hard on the team, otherwise why give a heads up to guys you like) but not quite as much as the team in general. Don't tell me he wanted it to be quiet so he only told a few, if you want that you don't tell anyone until you are ready to tell everyone. I have no argument with his decision. Just the timing (15 days before opening day) and the way it was allowed to roll out. It is a good decision for him and his family. If I were his dad I would be happy my son has decreased his chance of CTE. In his emotional state I also think it was to much to ask for him to process all of this at the time. The organization, in my opinion, should have advised him and managed this better. Just an all around bummer
