Andrew Luck, former quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts, recently joined Robert Mathis to pass on knowledge to young athletes.
Since Andrew Luck unexpectedly retired in 2019, he has made very few public appearances. Even during his playing days, Luck wasn’t really the guy that led a public lifestyle. That’s why fans are always excited anytime he’s spotted at a major event, like when he attended the College Football Championship earlier this year.
Recently, Luck made a public appearance in order to assist another former Indianapolis Colts player in Robert Mathis. Mathis famously does a lot of work with his organization, The Original Gridiron Gang, to pass on knowledge to the next generation of athletes.
Mathis invited Luck out to speak with the youth in the program and to share his knowledge and experience with them. Luckily for the people not in attendance, some of this was captured on camera and Mathis shared it with the world.
Really appreciate my old friend stopping by to pour into our @gridiron_gang_ youth. Our QB group led by JC Boice will be lethal trigger men!!! pic.twitter.com/5vjR978yNx

Robert Mathis and Andrew Luck team up again
Luck is one of the few athletes that will always hold a special place in the hearts of fans. Although he hasn’t played a snap of football in four years, his name lives on and routinely trends on Twitter.
He has especially been a topic of social media this week with Zak Keefer of The Athletic releasing a six-episode podcast series titled “Luck”, a narrative podcast that looks into Andrew’s career.
A career that was so special and unique that people can’t let it go. Luck was viewed as a generational, can’t-miss quarterback and was selected No. 1 overall by the Colts in 2012. He quickly lived up to all expectations and kept Indianapolis at contender status whenever he was healthy.
However, he did struggle to stay healthy, and that ultimately led to him retiring at age 29, just weeks before the 2019 season. Because of that ending, many have always wondered, what if? However, Luck has moved on and he’s not coming back, but it’s great to see that he’s sharing his life lessons with the next generation.
Are the Colts and the AFC South the worst division in terms of receiver talent?
The Indianapolis Colts and the AFC South has underwhelming receiver talent but how does the division compare to others across the NFL.
