That entire media bullshit manufactured theater of a "try-out" was an own goal by everyone involved.
I'll bet the farm the whole thing was a stunt to try to insulate the league from the lawsuit Mark Geragos, Kap's attorney, had filed against them, as well as provide some positive coverage of the NFL for the battle of "hearts and minds".
i don't blame them for being scared. The suit has teeth, mostly due to an inept NFL, and Mark is an incredible attorney.
But they underestimated Mr. Geragos and he outmaneuvered them. It was a waste of everyone's time and those guys get paid way too much money to be making such amateurish errors as this entire scene turned out to be.
Anyone that follows the NFL knows if any team/s were really interested in signing that walking circus they would go about it in a much different and less public fashion, which is usually in the best interests of all parties involved.
Kap is an idiot that doesn't understand the concept of "unwritten rules" and is trying to fight back thinking it is "unfair". He's not the first to do this. And he will be about as successful at it as the rest that have tried.
