Andrew Austen Luck (born September 12, 1989) is an American football executive and former professional quarterback who is the general manager for the Stanford Cardinal. He previously played in the National Football League (NFL) for seven seasons with the Indianapolis Colts. Widely considered one of the best draft prospects in NFL history during his college football career with Stanford, Luck won the Maxwell, Walter Camp, and Johnny Unitas Golden Arm awards as a senior. He was selected by the Colts first overall in the 2012 NFL draft.
Luck made an impact within his first year by setting the rookie records for most passing yards in a season and game, while leading a team that went 2–14 the previous year to an 11–5 record and playoff berth. Establishing himself as a dual-threat quarterback, he led the Colts to consecutive division titles in his next two seasons. In the postseason, Luck oversaw the NFL's second-largest playoff comeback during the 2013 playoffs and helped the Colts reach the 2014 AFC Championship Game. He earned Pro Bowl honors during his first three years and led the league in passing touchdowns in 2014.
Over the next three seasons, Luck struggled with injuries that caused him to miss the entire 2017 season. He returned to form the following year by setting several career highs and bringing the Colts back to the playoffs. For his success, Luck was named Comeback Player of the Year and voted to a fourth Pro Bowl. However, citing the injuries he sustained, Luck retired ahead of the 2019 season. In 2024, he returned to Stanford as the Cardinal's general manager. He was inducted to the College Football Hall of Fame in 2022.
