You don't know that to be true. SAS opinion is based on the premise that a team was actually going to sign him if he went along with it based on his sources. That theory was floating around from the beginning cause it never made sense for the NFL to do this now in the first place when everyone had forgotten about kaep and he was irrelevant 2 weeks ago.
But if you or kaep believe it was never a legit opportunity then he could have turned them down in advance without the theatrics. That part was on kaep. He had full control over how he responded.
On it's face, you're saying that a league who has a documented history of lying to cover their tracks, using their media partners so sow seeds of doubt about players, and throwing players under the bus when they've done wrong all of a sudden is going to be stand up with a man they've been actively blackballing for years? If a team was planning on actually on signing him why would they force him to go through an orchestrated NFL event? Even if that was their plan why not reach out to him directly and say "Hey. We know it's dumb, but just do the thing and you have a roster spot"? That's how it would actually work if a team was actually serious about signing him. Kaep would've known. His agent wouldn't known. How would SAS know this, but Kaep wouldn't? He wouldn't have moved it if that was the case.
What is nuts is that the NFL expects people to believe that a team would require a player to go through an NFL PR stunt as a pre-requisite for signing a player. They're leaking this shyt afterwards to save face. There's no WAY this would be true and SAS would know this information, but Kaep wouldn't and that definitely seemed like the case from Kaep's interview after working out.
I understand Kaep's response which to me is what happens when you're tired of people bullshytting you and pretending to be straight up when everyone else is watching. They wanted to hide him in a NFL controlled event, with no cameras, and after it was over leak shyt to their people in the same way they did with Dan Patrick and his settlement.
