Kenny Moore II with heartfelt goodbye to Indianapolis after release from Colts

INDIANAPOLIS — Kenny Moore II built a deep, heartfelt relationship with the city of Indianapolis over the course of nine seasons.

The professional decision he had to make for himself this spring was not easy.

Ultimately, Moore realized he might fit better elsewhere and asked for the Colts to find him a new home through a trade. When that wasn’t possible, Moore asked for his release earlier this week, and Indianapolis granted the request.

Moore issued a heartfelt goodbye to the city of Indianapolis on his social media accounts Saturday night.

“The moment I realized I wouldn’t be putting on the horseshoe again, it was a lot to comprehend, something I had to mentally fight myself about before I knew it was time to talk about it,” Moore said. “Initially, I felt like it was too soon, but God makes no mistakes. Everything that transpired over the last year was for a reason and I’m at peace to call Indianapolis home for the last 9 years.”
