OK, it sound like we agree on that point.

But I can name 2 other opportunities as outlined by his agent where a professional athlete and his medical team could have resolved this at the expense of no time lost. Most would categorize those opportunities as the responsible decision.

I'll agree with that also. However, that would suppose that the professional athlete in question has more intelligence than a turnip and the ability to control his own impulses. Kane's previous behaviour, especially on social media, kind of makes me doubt whether those two conditions apply in this case.
What I seem to be saying is that Kane's actions are predictable and understandable, given the kind of person he appears to be; not that they are right or prudent. He has definitely fouled up. But he doesn't seem to be the only person who contributed to the foul-up.
