Andrew Luck returns to football as Stanford Cardinal general manager after five-year hiatus

Andrew Luck is returning to football as the general manager of the Stanford Cardinal program, more than five years after retiring from the NFL. He replaces a struggling team that finished the 2024 season with a 3-9 record. Luck, a former Stanford quarterback, expressed his commitment to the university and its football program. He aims to work with head coach Troy Taylor on improving the team and enhancing support for student-athletes. This marks a significant shift for Luck, who had been largely absent from football since his retirement in 2019 due to injuries. His new role will involve fundraising and strengthening alumni relations.
