How many prime years does Colts’ Andrew Luck have left?

The Colts’ franchise quarterback has been in the league since 2012 and is approaching his 8th season in the league. How many years of his prime does he have left?

Andrew Luck was the number one overall pick in the 2012 draft. Since then, he has been the Colts’ franchise quarterback, playing well most years. He did have to take an entire year off because of injury in 2017, but he played like he was in his prime last season.

With all of that into consideration, how many more years of his prime does Luck have left? He will turn 30 this season and has already missed a whole year because of injury. Having an offensive line as good as it was last season should be able to extend his prime as long as possible.

The way Luck played last season, his best football could still be ahead of him. He didn’t really have any time to improve his game last offseason because he was still doing some rehab on his shoulder. He shouldn’t have to do that any longer.

Based on his past play and his injury history, he should have five or six years of prime left including this season. If that’s the case, then the Colts need to do everything they can to win in that six year window. They need to pull out all the stops to win a championship.

This year could possibly be that year. If they can play up to their full capability, they are talented enough to go all the way. Luck will be a big part of that run if they can do that.
