I don't think it means that. It seems to say that Apple will buy components for RF, not necessarily modems and antennas.
I'd be very surprised if Apple gave up on their internal modems. Not sure about whether the plan was ever to make antennas or just to have IP protection for option value. But there are a ton of other parts in the RF stack.
