Andrew Luck's shoulder was sore and swollen after returning to practice, forcing the Colts to shut him down for the time being.

Andrew Luck hasn't played a game since undergoing shoulder surgery in January.
Luck returned to practice two weeks ago, but the Colts are shutting him down from throwing after he experienced soreness and swelling.
The Colts' best option may be to shut Luck down completely this season.

As we head into Week 7 of the NFL regular season, it doesn't appear Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck is anywhere close to returning.

Luck had been sidelined all season after undergoing surgery to his throwing shoulder in January, but returned to practice two weeks ago.

According to ESPN's Mike Wells, Luck got in four practices over two weeks, gradually ramping up his workload, until Wednesday, the Colts shut down Luck's throwing after he began dealing with soreness.

Colts GM Chris Ballard said that Luck received a cortisone shot and will rehab until the swelling and soreness decreases.
