Amid reports that Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck is visiting specialists to determine why he's experiencing soreness in his surgically repaired throwing shoulder, he's not close to returning to practice with the team, Stephen Holder of the Indianapolis Star reports.

Head coach Chuck Pagano officially ruled out Luck for this week's practices, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Luck made his much-anticipated return to practice in early October, but had a setback, the team announced on Oct. 18, and hasn't practiced since.

While the Colts have not made any decision on Luck's status moving forward, current circumstances suggest the possibility of him playing in any games this season is also in jeopardy.
