ASHBURN — Hugh Thornton understands where Andrew Luck is coming from. The offensive lineman is trying to make a comeback with the Redskins after several injury-plagued years with the Indianapolis Colts led to retirement in 2017.
Thornton says it was frustrating, going through rehab multiple times to overcome recurring injuries. He felt stuck in a cycle, the same one Luck described as he announced his retirement late Saturday. The two even rehabbed together at Indianapolis.
“You feel like you play to get hurt to rehab,” Thornton said.
