The Rams informed Sullivan on Tuesday that they wouldn't exercise his $6 million team option for 2019, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sullivan is still a solid player despite his advanced age, so his release is likely only for cap-relief purposes. With the 34-year-old's salary off the books, the Rams are expected to turn to 2018 fourth-round pick Brian Allen as their first-string center when OTAs begin.

Sullivan (rest) won't play in Sunday's game against the 49ers.
EDGE Analysis
Sullivan doesn't appear on the injury report. However, the Rams evidently believe they have little to gain by winning Sunday, so they're opting to rest their 32-year-old veteran. Second-year center Austin Blythe will presumably take his place in the starting lineup.
