The Indianapolis Colts have a press conference planned for Wednesday afternoon, where they'll announce the departure of their iconic quarterback, Peyton Manning. This move has been expected for some time but the news of his release has caught the eye of Arizona Cardinals defensive lineman Darnell Dockett, who took to Twitter on Tuesday night and said: "Peyton to AZ!!!!!!"
The Cardinals are expected to be one of the teams in on the pursuit for Manning. They have Kevin Kolb under contract after signing him to a longterm deal last year, but that's not expected to stop them from at least exploring the idea of adding Manning.
Clearly, Dockett realizes what Manning could do for Arizona. He's one of the league's all-time great quarterbacks and these types of players rarely hit free agency.
The fact that Larry Fitzgerald, one of the game's best receivers, is with the Cardinals probably doesn't hurt Dockett's Manning campaign.
