Colts Continue Workouts Without Rookie QB Andrew Luck

[SteveRobWhatever]

The Colts are out of Luck at this week's mini-camp. With new quarterback Andrew Luck still finishing two college classes, team officials are doing what they can to make sure the No. 1 overall draft pick doesn't fall behind in his football studies before returning to Indy on June 8. Veterans can't wait to get a peek at Luck. ''I came in to do some maintenance stuff the last day of rookie mini-camp and I asked him 'Did you throw any picks?''' cornerback Jerraud Powers said. ''He said, 'I don't think I did.' So I said, 'Hi, I'm Jerraud Powers and I'll be picking you off a lot in practice.''' Aside from the ribbing Luck and his fellow rookies will take from the older guys this season, the Colts don't seem too concerned about not having Luck around. Coach Chuck Pagano said Wednesday that the Colts have stayed in constant communication with Luck, that he's been busy with the team's playbook and that he's been able to work out with at least two college teammates, Coby Fleener and Griff Whalen, while at Stanford Fleener and Whalen are both on the Colts' roster.
