No. 20 Andrew Luck


He returned last season to remind the league that he's still among the game's best. Luck carries the Colts.


In 2018, Luck picked up where he left off when we last saw him play in 2016. He earned his fourth Pro Bowl appearance and was named the league’s Comeback Player of the Year.


Luck led the Colts’ offense to one of its most prolific seasons in recent memory and set several new single-season career highs along the way, including completions (430), pass attempts (639), completion percentage (67.3 percent), passer rating (98.7), ESPN QBR (71.6) and Pro Football Focus grade (91.3).


One of Luck’s most impressive feats in 2018 came between Weeks 4-12, when he threw at least three touchdown passes in each game. The mark tied Luck with Peyton Manning (eight) for the second-most consecutive games with at least three passing touchdowns in NFL history, trailing only Tom Brady, who did it in 10 consecutive games in 2011.


2019 means another year of continuity between Luck, Reich and offensive coordinator Nick Sirianni. All five starting linemen are back, and wide receiver Deon Cain and tight end Jack Doyle are expected to be back and healthy. The Colts also added wide receivers Parris Campbell and Devin Funchess. Everything is set up for Luck to shine.
