Andrew Luck Returns To Practice Wednesday

Last updated on Thursday, October 5, 2017

(INDIANAPOLIS, IN) - Andrew Luck made his return to the practice field on Wednesday and, while limited, said it was a big step in the right direction.

"It was another good day for me and that's what's important. It was fun to get back on the field with my teammates. I know it's cliché, but you do take those things for granted and then just to put a helmet on, have a jersey with a 12 on it and get to go out and warm up with the guys and throw a couple of passes and do some drills in a team setting was fun. And more importantly, it's part of me getting back into the swing of things, into being a quarterback for this team."

Unsurprisingly, the Colts are not going to rush Luck back as Chuck Pagano already ruled him out for Sunday's game against the 49ers and said that even in practice he will be heavily monitored.

"There is a pitch count. There is a number. We'll keep an eye on him. We've got it scripted exactly how many throws he'll have and what routes he'll throw based on each day," Pagano said.

Luck did assure fans that he will play this season, calling it a situation of "when, not if".
