Sources: Rams don't pick up Sullivan's option

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Rams did not exercise the option on veteran center John Sullivan's contract, sources told ESPN.

Sullivan signed a two-year deal worth up to $10.75 million in 2018. The decision to decline the option on the 33-year-old's contract will save the Rams $5.5 million in salary cap space, according to ESPN Stats & Information.

NFL Network first reported the news.

A source told ESPN that the Rams would discuss options with Sullivan for the 10-year veteran to remain with the organization in some capacity.

Brian Allen, a fourth-round pick from Michigan State in 2018, is expected to take over as starter.
