He most likely put up a protest to have Boaster leave the team, like a “if you don’t drop Boaster then I won’t be playing” type of talk. It’s pretty obvious that he isn’t really sick and all those mentions to it prior were to build up the excuse for the public to leave split 2 if boaster is still playing for FNC.
Respect for this guy really, it makes perfect sense too for A LOT of reasons. Why would he continue to shame his career anymore? The man is decorated with individual success and boaster is threatening it by not doing his job, may as well just not play. Like wtf is FNC gonna do, drop him?
