Given that Colts owner Jim Irsay repeatedly has shown that he’s willing to dispute via Twitter any reports regarding his team that he deems inaccurate, his silence in the two hours since ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reported that the Colts will cut quarterback Peyton Manning on Wednesday could be regarded as an acknowledgement that, indeed, the end is coming for Manning and the Colts.

But not everyone is silent on Twitter. Cardinals defensive tackle Darnell Dockett has chimed in on the news with a simple, clear message.

Peyton to AZ!!!!!!

That’s undoubtedly comforting to Kevin Kolb, the quarterback for whom the Cardinals gave up a second-round pick in 2012, cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, and plenty of cash via a new contract.
