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.
