Andrew Luck Booed By Colts Fans After News of His Retirement Breaks

Colts quarterback Andrew Luck retired from the NFL on Saturday night, and Indianapolis fans were not happy about it.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported during the Colts' preseason game against the Bears that Luck had informed the team of his decision. As word of the report spread around Lucas Oil Stadium, Luck was seen standing on the sidelines talking with his teammates. Once the game ended, fans booed him as he exited the field. The 29-year-old signal-caller ended up holding an impromptu press conference to confirm the news.

Luck told reporters that he planned to make the announcement on Sunday afternoon, but once the news broke he decided he had to address it Saturday night after the preseason game.
