Talks are ongoing between the Indianapolis Colts and franchise quarterback Andrew Luck on a new contract that will keep Luck in white and blue well into his '30s.
The 26-year-old is set to earn $16.2 million in 2016 after the team picked up his fifth-year option, while an impending new contract will probably fetch him in the range of Aaron Rodgers' $110 million that guarantees about half. So what to do with all that cheddar?
Luck chatted with The Ringer's Kevin Clark recently about his newly-founded book club and also addressed the future nerdy purchase:
Q: What's the nerdiest thing you're going to buy?
Luck: Maybe a robot ping pong thing that hits balls back at you. My buddy has one and swears by it.
Q: Is there a problem where you can't find people to play ping pong with you?
Luck: There's some good ping pong players but sometimes no one wants to hang out!
We knew it wasn't going to be a cutting edge mobile phone given his affinity for the flip phone.
This is a clear opportunity for ping pong aficionados in the Indianapolis area to offer Luck some competition and companionship. The handle @ALPingPongClub is up for grabs.
This is a nice contraption but Colts fans, don't make your QB resort to it:
