The Los Angeles Rams have made one of their first big moves of 2024, releasing former starting center Brian Allen. It was an expected money-saving move, as Allen was a cap hit of over $8 million this coming season.
Allen was the starting center for LA’s offense when they won Super Bowl LVI. At the beginning of 2022, Allen signed a three-year extension worth $18 million to keep him in Los Angeles, but he never lived up to the contract and was injured most of 2022, only playing five games total. He was eventually demoted to a reserve role behind Coleman Shelton at the start of 2023.
