One wild card is the contract. Colts might want out of it. Luck could be willing to renegotiate if he goes to a contending team.

There is no middle ground regarding Luck, it's a polarized situation.

If he recovers he's still 28 years old and extremely valuable based on a history of performance at the most scarce and important position in sports. The Colts would almost certainly not trade him, and if somehow a trade was worked out (e.g. a scenario where they held the top overall pick and thus a replacement was on deck, ironically the Manning/Luck situation) they would receive a significant package despite the injury history.

If he doesn't recover then he can't pass a physical and is untradeable.
