" private key to sign ": That's digital signature. In case of TLS only public 
key is used to encrypt and share the symmetric key which is used in later 
communication. No digital signature required.

[ofriel] https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5246#section-7.4.8 and 
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tls-tls13-28#section-4.4.3 explain how 
the client uses its cert private key to sign the TLS handshake transcript. If 
client doesn’t know the private key, it cant generate the CertificateVerify and 
TLS fails.

Presenting a certificate of another party doesn't work.
TLS and other protocols don't just use a certificate, but they use the related 
private key to sign part of the transaction.
