As you may have heard, Andrew Luck is alive and well. He has graduated from Vortex to Nerf to youth footballs and is now officially tossing a regulation sized NFL football.
Sound the sirens. Andrew Luck is throwing NFL footballs again.

Health was always the concern with Luck, and it now appears that his shoulder is ready sling bombs. The new questions around Luck will be in regards to durability, arm strength, and playing style.
Luck is currently being drafted as the 10th quarterback off the board, per FantasyFootballCalculator.com. All of the concerns around Luck are fairly baked into his price, but in his range, he may be the only passer available who has elite fantasy upside.
Andrew Luck is being Andrew Luck by picking apart the defense in the full-padded. He and receiver TY Hilton are already back in sync with the corner route plays.

T.Y. Hilton also stands to benefit by Luck's return. After four straight 1,000-yard seasons, Hilton struggled to connect with backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett. The last season Hilton and Luck were together, Hilton led the league in receiving yards. He has a real chance to do that again on top of a barren depth chart.
It looks like it's safe to once again target both of the Colts' offensive stars.
