Andrew Luck has surgery to fix right shoulder
— -- Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck has undergone shoulder surgery, team owner Jim Irsay announced in a tweet Thursday morning.
Irsay said the outpatient procedure would not affect Luck's 2017 season.
During the Colts' trip to London this season, Irsay said Luck did not have major problems with his right shoulder, which was initially injured in 2015, and would not need surgery.
Luck was listed on the team's injury report every week this season and was usually limited in practice on Thursdays, but he missed only one game in 2016: Week 12 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, after suffering a concussion.
After missing two games in 2015 with a shoulder injury, Luck aggravated the injury?while trying to make a tackle after throwing an interception against the Denver Broncos in Week 2 this season.
Luck threw for 4,240 yards with 31 touchdowns and 13 interceptions in 2016 as the Colts went 8-8 and missed the playoffs for the second straight season.
