Philip B. Wilson of the Indianapolis Star is reporting that the Colts have decided to part ways with DT Ed Johnson, pushing rookie DT Fili Moala into the lineup in his place.

Head coach Jim Caldwell was quick to say that the decision was based on  Johnson’s play on the field and not on his lack of character off it, but that line of reasoning seems a bit suspect given the amount of playing time Johnson has had thus far. His production was pretty poor, so it makes sense that the Colts would want to find an upgrade, but a release would indicate that something else is at work here.

As always, we’ll keep you updated…
