Well, sort of! :lol:
He qualified everything with "right now", referring to hypotheticals he would rather not discuss, etc. He also said:

"Things in this crazy business change on a day-to-day basis."

He could have said "I'm not interested in the SF job and will not discuss it with them." He didn't do that.

The only difference is that at least he won't be negotiating on the eve of the Super Bowl this time.
