Luck thinks Capt. Andrew Luck Twitter account is 'pretty cool'
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck doesn't know who's behind the popular Twitter parody account Capt. Andrew Luck, but he does enjoy their Civil War-inspired musings.
"I do not know who it is," Luck told NFL Network's MJ Acosta at the Pro Bowl. "It's definitely not me. I'm not clever enough to write that, but it's pretty cool. I'm glad people find a little enjoyment about it when maybe some things on the internet can be a little meaner."
Yes, @Colts QB Andrew Luck is a fan of the @CaptAndrewLuck Twitter account 😂

While the identity of Capt. Andrew Luck remains a mystery, the person did reveal a few details about himself in a 2017 interview with Meg Melton of FOX59. He described himself as "a West Coast journalist" who studied history and journalism in college and has no direct ties to Indiana.
The account has gained over 500,000 followers since joining Twitter in December 2015. Its latest tweet was sent after the Colts' divisional-round loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

It is with a heavy heart I inform you our campaign has ended. Our unit fell to the Chiefs on a snowy battlefield. While disappointed, I am extremely proud of all our accomplishments week after week, day after day, fight after fight. I shall see you soon.
