3 Stories: Andrew Luck's Retirement, Concussion Settlement Update, Carli Lloyd

29-year-old Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck stunned the NFL world last weekend by announcing his retirement, and Colts fans are still grappling with the decision. But the Washington Post's Jerry Brewer says Luck's choice makes sense considering the toll football took on his health.
