After Andrew Luck announced his retirement and was booed by the Colts fans, several NFL players took to Twitter to back up the former Pro-Bowler:
You Andrew luck. Many blessings to you as you start this next chapter in your life.

This is a very rough game. Most people who have not played at this level will never understand what we put our bodies through season after season. We don’t need the sympathy because this is what we signed up for but to “boo” a man that battled for that city is disgraceful.

Thank you Drew for everything you gave this game! You are an amazing teammate and an even better friend. Wish you nothing but the best in your next endeavor. I know you will be even greater in your next chapter
