Shocking news hit the NFL on Saturday night when ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that Andrew Luck is retiring from the NFL.
News broke on social media as the Indianapolis Colts were in the middle of a preseason game against the Chicago Bears and Lucas Oil Stadium and Luck was on the sideline in street clothes. Schefter reported that Luck’s is based off being “mentally worn down.”
And Colts fans who got updates on their phones informing them of Luck’s decision, they decided to let him have it as he left the field, booing him as he exited.

(You can listen in to the scene in Indy here.)
(And here’s another video without commentators talking.)
By the way, Luck heard it all.
“It hurt, I’ll be honest. It hurt,” he told reporters Saturday evening, per NFL Network’s Mike Giardi.

It goes without saying that this is an incredibly bad look for Colts fans.
