Joe had now played 2 years of professional football under 2 coaches he respected and was very hurt and disillusioned with the CFL and was ready to return to the US.
Joe was told by BC management, "If anyone can protect their integrity by playing out their option, knowing they are going to a different team the following year, it is you." However, the Lions and the CFL in an effort to discourage other players from doing this suspended Joe.
Joe was not awarded damages but since then the rules at issue in the Kapp case have been revised and a new system has been instituted and a multi-million dollar settlement was made with the NFL players in 1977.

He was called "Injun" Joe, despite the fact his heritage was a mix of Mexican and German blood, and he quarterbacked an NFL championship team, despite owning a passing arm that produced more wounded ducks than his hunter-head coach, Bud Grant, who spent pre-dawn hours squatting with a rifle in a Minneapolis duck blind.
Kapp's deliveries had more quirky movements than a Phil Niekro knuckleball, and when the Vikings played the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl IV, the champions of the American Football League were slack-jawed when they got their first look at "Injun" Joe's javelin-like heaves that wobbled in the wind.
Kapp further intimidated the Browns when he took on 250-pound linebacker Jim Houston in the open field, and knocked the Cleveland star cold with a knee to the helmet.

Joe's helmet is physically crumbling today as a result of his aggressive playing style.
Today, Joe's helmet and that, now retired, Brown's linebacker may be worse for the wear but Joe Kapp still looks like he could still gallantly lead the Vikings on one of those freezing snowy Sunday afternoons at the old Metropolitan Stadium
