Default Ebron speaks on Lucks retirement

I suck at posting links but allegedly Ebron is claiming that Ballard told Luck to play injured or they were moving on. He goes on to speak on the severity of his injury and how Ballard “ran his name thru the ringer”

I don’t believe it but he’s bashing Ballard big time

I heard that yesterday on Query's show. I believe it. His quote something to do with the guy with the big office and the jeans that is always in everyone's shit, oh I definitely believe it. I fully believe blow hard Ballard would say some shit like that just to show he was in charge and you better get used to it. I think he is 100% conman bullshit. Fuck Chris Ballard!

Chappell says Luck said there is nothing to this rumor. Reggie also said he never heard anything. I don't want Ballard around as much as anyone but it is about the teams he puts on the field. He actually seems like a decent human being by all accounts.

I saw a clip of it. The dude wasn't shit prior to 2018 and wasn't shit after 2018. I remember Reich and Ballard both acting surprised and disappointed at him shutting it down in 2019 and he got slapped with the "quit on the team" label.

He's been a bitch towards the Colts since.

And this is the only source we've ever heard claim this? That the GM threatened to move on from fucking Andrew Luck? Hmmm...

I listened to the entire hour, he had Darius Leonard on there and it was very disheartening hearing Leonard discuss Gus Bradley and how they handled him at the end.

Said Bradley never held anyone accountable he gave out game balls after loses

I don't believe this for a second. One guy, with the team 2 years is the only one who knows this. The NFL players rate Ballard as one of the top GMs to work with. If he treated players like this, that wouldn't be true. People would know. This is pure bullshit from a small man unless someone else comes forward and says it it true.
