What the hell is going on?
Andrew Luck’s body hasn’t even gotten cold yet from his retirement and rumor mill is already going strong.
You want to know how we know? Because the Dallas Cowboys are among hypothetical suitors for the now-former Indianapolis Colts quarterback.
Appearing on his FOX Sports 1 show Speak For Yourself on Monday, Jason Whitlock threw out a wild prediction that Luck will ultimately un-retire in two years, just so he can sign with the Cowboys.
“I think he’s going to sit for two years,” Whitlock said. “I don’t think he’s returning to Indianapolis, though. I picture him in a Cowboys uniform. … Yeah. That’s my prediction on that.”
That is just a wild prediction, seeing as how the team is expected to give Dak Prescott a huge contract extension pretty soon to keep him with the team for years to come.

Even still, not even Jerry Jones would turn down the opportunity to get a talent like Andrew Luck on his squad, if it means getting another Super Bowl victory.
“We’ve seen Tiger Woods come back (from injury) and win the Masters; we’ve seen Michael Jordan retire and unretire (twice). In this case, we just wish (Luck) the best and maybe that he finds some clarity,” Colts owner Jim Irsay said, via IndyStar.com. “Again, he’ll just be 30 years old (soon).”
Former NFL WR T.J. Houshmandzadeh offered some clarity on the situation when he stated that the Colts own his rights should he decide to retire and would need to be released to become a free agent for him to sign where he wants to go.
Luck signed a five-year, $122 million contract with Indianapolis in 2016.
