Colts QB Andrew Luck says there is nothing to report on his new contract
Luck has two years remaining on his rookie deal, including a team option for 2016 that must be exercised later this year, but he claims there is nothing new to report.
“There’s nothing there right now,” Luck said, via the Indianapolis Star. “I didn’t think about it all during the season and it’s only been a few days since it ended. I haven’t thought about it. I will have conversations with my agent just because you have to prepare, but I’m not sure where that report came from.”
An ESPN report indicated that the Colts have been “working on the parameters” of an offer that would make Luck the highest-paid player in the league this offseason, but owner Jim Irsay said after the AFC Championship game that such a deal was not part of his “thought process” at this point. Luck sent a similar message after the Pro Bowl. I bet they will definitely get something done, because he cannot sign a new deal until March when the new season begins.
