Default JMV reporting update on Luck

Just listening to JMV and he's reporting via his sources (same sources he used to break the Manning neck injury news a few years back) that as of yesterday Andrew is throwing touch passes about 30ish yards downfield. He was quick to clarify that he's still very much day to day as they monitor how his shoulder reacts to each new milestone in his recovery.....ie still uncertain whether he will make the season opener with the Rams which is 25 days out but it seems he is definitely progressing and definitely throwing footballs not tennis balls at this stage. My impression is that his sources are Colts insiders and reliable but as with all anonymous sources I will take this with a grain of salt until I see him throwing myself. Also, in addition to throwing accurately with a clean pocket I wonder when he will be ready to take some hits when the pocket breaks down.....With that in mind, I still think it's likely he misses the first game or two as they seem to really be taking a long term approach vs. hurry up and get him on the field. Still, I think this is a bit of positive news.

That is good to know, and thanks for the info, but honestly its just confirms what we all kind of suspected and/or knew anyway thus far.

He is progressing, he will be back probably sometime in September but not sure it will be for week one as of yet.

If Luck doesn't come off PUP next week, I think he misses the first week, and probably week two also.

Honestly when Luck was placed on the PUP list i figured the team was planning on him missing the first few weeks of the season.

Living in LA, I was planning on going to the first game against the Rams. It's looking like I will not spend the money on tickets and just watch from home.

They are now reporting Kelly out for 2 months......I think it's a lock that they will not put Luck under a rookie center against the Rams. Save your $$

Whoever is back there at QB , they better hope Aaron Donald does holdout. He will kill a UDFA Center or about any other Center in league.

This should have been the news about 2 weeks ago. What fucking good does it to do to sit on this until now? Unless they didn't want some F/A to have leverage in a negotiation. Priceless that the guy they signed that would have been the backup is also unavailable.

Not crying "the sky is falling" but one thing this team needed going into this season was good health. That's kind of stating the obvious because every team needs that but if Luck is going to miss any time at all they need all hands on deck everywhere else. Get tired of that "next man up" mantra particularly when it comes out of Pagano's mouth.

I'm not an excuse maker for Pagano but I can certainly understand the frustration on his part. The list of players in the article is priceless.
