At the trade deadline he had just done a workout and then got shut down again for swelling and not feeling right. Once we get past the narrative that it was all a show here and accept he was really hurt the first thing the medical personnel will do is ask him questions, and now it is clear he wasn't making it up his own answers would have red flagged it.
Remember, in season you get one shot at this because essentially by the time the medical is ran the deadline is past. I just don't think teams with limited time to evaluate medicals are going to agree especially knowing the compensation would have most likely been made with the assumption he could play. That said I think a team would be more likely to pass him with more time during a FA pre signing physical where they have more time and can structure compensation to take potential injury into account.
Cordy Glenn allegedly passed his physical then refused to play so . . .
