NFL fans rip Dan Snyder’s Commanders after reports emerge of franchise checking Andrew Luck’s availability last season - “Poverty franchise”

Quarterback Andrew Luck hasn't played in the National Football League since 2018. Despite having not even turned 30 years old, the former Indianapolis Colts quarterback called it a career after enduring multiple injuries.That apparently didn't stop Washington Commanders owner Daniel Snyder from contacting him to see if he was available to play last season.NFL Insider Dov Kleiman Tweeted on Sunday morning that Snyder called the former Colts quarterback to see if he wanted to return to the NFL. Clearly, he wasn't interested. Many believe that if he was, the Indianapolis Colts would likely have been his first destination.&quot;𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲: The #Commanders called retired former #Colts QB Andrew Luck to see if he's available to sign with them last season, via @john_keim&quot;Dov Kleiman@NFL_DovKleiman𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲: The #Commanders called retired former #Colts QB Andrew Luck to see if he's available to sign with them last season, via @john_keim4809237𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲: The #Commanders called retired former #Colts QB Andrew Luck to see if he's available to sign with them last season, via @john_keim https://t.co/t8p8neLnlJThat Tweet by Kleiman just added more fuel to NFL fans dislike for the Commanders owner who is in the process of selling his franchise. One Twitter user referred to him as a 'poverty owner' as he called to see if a retired quarterback was available to sign.Others were quick to note that the Indianapolis Colts still own the NFL right to Andrew Luck. So, if he was actually interested and another NFL team wanted him, then that team would have to give up compensation. But, it's just another part of the saga of the Daniel Snyder owned Washington Commanders.𝕮𝖍𝖆𝖘𝖊 💎@PacersWRLD@NFL_DovKleiman @john_keim Poverty franchise2@NFL_DovKleiman @john_keim Poverty franchiseDetroitDen313@DetroitDen313@NFL_DovKleiman @john_keim Probably let that one go to voicemail126@NFL_DovKleiman @john_keim Probably let that one go to voicemail6Burgh E ⬛🟨 (👀)@Steel_EMan@NFL_DovKleiman @john_keim That man is an Atuary, he gone.@NFL_DovKleiman @john_keim That man is an Atuary, he gone.Grammy Songwriter Loading@Tony_Still_SangLMFAO!

He was able to play a full season in 2018, which led Indy back to the playoffs.But, before the 2018 NFL season, Andrew Luck shocked everyone by announcing his retirement after just seven seasons.
