Colts QB Andrew Luck, former No. 1 pick, announces hes retiring

'This is not an easy decision,' the Indianapolis Colts player told reporters. 'For the last four years or so I've been in this cycle of injury, pain, rehab, injury, pain, rehab. And it's been unceasing and unrelenting ... and the only way I see out is to no longer play football.'

Injuries had kept Luck, 29, from playing in the preseason. He was on the Colts' sideline Saturday during a preseason game against the Chicago Bears in street clothes. As news of his retirement spread, Luck was booed as he left the field, a number of videos shared online show.

Luck said the pain has taken away his joy for the game and he hasn't been able to live the life he wants to live. He played the 2016 season in pain, he said, and made a vow he wouldn't go down that road again.
