Andrew Luck, the NFL's all-star librarian


When Andrew Luck looks like the best quarterback in the NFL—as he often has in previous seasons—the Indianapolis Colts are a playoff team. When Luck throws interceptions and takes sacks—as he often has this season—the Colts are mediocre.
It’s possible no group of players in the league is more dependent on one individual than the other 52 members of the Indianapolis roster.
They’ve even come to depend on Luck when choosing what books to read.
“He’s always saying ‘I read this great book,’ ” said backup quarterback Matt Hasselbeck. “He’s recommended books on concrete architecture, Rob Lowe’s autobiography or ‘Mountains Beyond Mountains,’” a 2003 account of a doctor working to fight tuberculosis.
