Rams release offensive lineman Brian Allen

THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. – The Rams have released veteran offensive lineman Brian Allen.

Originally a 2018 fourth-round draft pick by Los Angeles out of Michigan State, Allen started in 32 of 50 regular season games across six seasons with the Rams. He was the starting center in 16 of 17 regular season games and every postseason game during the Rams’ Super Bowl LVI-winning 2021 season, and that performance led not only to being named a Pro Bowl alternate for that season, but also a 3-year extension from the team in the spring of 2022.

Allen unfortunately dealt with knee and thumb injuries that limited him to five games in the 2022 season. The Rams then pivoted to Coleman Shelton after having a competition at the center position leading into the 2023 season.
