Andrew Luck has become the highest paid player in the NFL.  Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay says that Luck has signed a six year deal worth $140 million dollars with 60 million of it guaranteed and with average of $24.6 million per season.

Luck is very grateful to the Colts organization for believing in him especially since he's coming off an injury plegged season. This from his statement via the Colts website.

It’s an honor and privilege to be part of the Colts, "To have this deal done, it’s great. It’s sort of fun to start a second chapter, a second phase, with the Colts.

"I truly appreciate Mr. Irsay and the Irsay family for the level of commitment and trust they’ve shown in me. I’ve loved being a Colt and I’ll continue to love being a Colt. It won’t change my process or preparation in any way. It’s all about winning and we understand that in this building. It’s a great winning franchise that knows how to win. We need to get back to the playoffs and give ourselves a chance to get to the Super Bowl.”
