Luck has resumed throwing footballs

Andrew Luck has reached the next stage in the rehabilitation of his right shoulder: throwing footballs.

The Indianapolis Colts quarterback - who's seen his progress start and stop after undergoing surgery in January 2017 - is gradually making his way back to playing shape.

It was reported in January that he was close to throwing footballs again, but the focus at the time was working on shoulder strength and balancing his muscles.

New Colts head coach Frank Reich said Tuesday at the coaches breakfast in Orlando that Luck is chucking the pigskin again, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.

General manager Chris Ballard said last week that Luck will be eased back into team workouts.
