Colts head coach Frank Reich said last week that Luck (shoulder) has yet to begin a throwing program, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reich's comments confirm what general manager Chris Ballard announced a week prior; essentially, Luck's rehab program for his surgically repaired shoulder continues to move along slowly but steadily as he inches closer to throwing again. While it's expected that Luck will start a throwing program soon, there isn't any official timetable for that to happen, which puts his availability for the start of the Colts' offseason workouts in the spring into question. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Luck has recently been in California meeting with throwing experts, who have been monitoring the progress of his recovery.
If he can't throw after all this time, one has to believe he will lose some velocity even if he returns. That does not bode well for his projections. I would personally only stash him in Dynasty leagues if I didn't have any better options to take his spot. Otherwise he'd be gone.

I wouldn't be surprised if he never plays another NFL game. It's time for Indy to find a new QB of the future.

We will all have to wait and see I have him stashed in a few Dynasty Leagues.
