It was an unfortunate end to Luck's pro football career, retiring at 29, struggling with injuries he had at the time, considering most saw the former Stanford Cardinal as a potential Hall of Famer, SB Nation reported.

Despite the untimely retirement decision of Andrew Luck, NFL teams still tried to woo him back into the league. The Washington Commanders reached out to him to see if he was still interested in playing professional football. Luck stayed retired.

But that is not all he will be occupied with.

Luck will also pursue a master's degree at the Stanford School of Education to enrich his knowledge further.
