They can't though. He would have to go through waivers to be on the team again. And we would have to be first on the waiver wire for him to clear it.

If Brissett struggles you give Chad Kelly a chance.

Why would Luck have to clear waivers? He wasn’t waived. He retired. Am I missing something?

There is some irony right there

It's what I heard yesterday on sports radio. That he was added to the retired list. If he was to come back, he would have to go through the waiver wire and could be claimed by anyone below us in claim order.

I thought he would still be under contract, I don't know how that would work with his contract. But I guess the 24 was a settlement deal so maybe the Colts don't have a claim on him. Might work differently in the off season.

I'm not 100% certain, but I'd be very surprised if that is accurate. Hard to find accurate information though. As I understand it the 24m was just the Colts saying they wouldn't ask him to pay back the money he has already received. It wouldn't affect his contract status. They'd be stupid to pay Luck 24m and give up their rights to him should he decide to play again.

Actually it sounds like it may be right - if he returns before the trade deadline. Apparently its different because he reported to training camp and then retired. If Luck unretires anytime after the trade deadline this year he won't be subject to waivers. He would be under contract with the Colts.

I tried to look it up but couldn't find anything except people that agreed with that. I bet they heard the same thing.

What's worse. Whitlock today said Luck will be back in two years and he will play for the Cowboys.

Then a patriots fan came in and said the patriots after Brady retires.
