Whatever the Colts did in practice yesterday, quarterback Andrew Luck was a full participant in it, as far as you know.
And if you were looking for more clarity from Luck himself, it wasn’t there either.
“It feels better every day,” Luck said after whatever he did, via Stephen Holder of the Indianapolis Star. “It was great to go through practice without limitations, in a sense, and get out there and throw. It was better.”
That “without limitations” part is probably the key if we’re parsing, which we’re kind of forced to do with coach Chuck Pagano has adopted a cloak-and-dagger approach to the topic, saying he’s had “supreme confidence” each of the last two weeks, while Luck has missed those games with a shoulder problem.
“It was good. It’s another step in the right direction,” Luck said of his work. “It’s always fun to get out and practice on a beautiful day and prepare for a great team coming to town.”
Oh, yes, the opponent. With the Patriots coming to town Sunday night, there’s naturally a little more interest, based on that whole thing that began with last year’s AFC Championship Game.
“Every game is important,” Luck said. “This certainly is a big game. It’s the next game. And it is a very, very good team that’s undefeated coming into town. There certainly is a history between us and them, but it’s also a new year.”
We now leave you to dig into those words for more clues, and track Josh Johnson’s plane, to see if it’s coming or going from Indianapolis today.
