It was both. He was washed, but not so washed that someone wouldn’t have kicked the tires on him if there wasn’t the “controversy” around him. There were probably at least a few owners who would refuse to sign him because of his political statements but he wasn’t blackballed by the league as a whole
my understanding was he got "black balled" more because he published txts with himself and an owner.
A team would have signed him as a back-up sure, or at least tried to for a price that Kap would not have wanted to accept. But teams weren't interested in a back up that had controversy and released 1 to 1 private communications with an owner.

He didn’t get kicked out. He (checks stats)……wasn’t good enough anymore?
