Jerry Tillery was a first-round pick of the Los Angeles Clippers.
Tillery can't be claimed until Monday because the move won't be official until Friday. The teams that were interested in trading for him before the deadline are expected to claim him.
Tillery was listed as a non-participant because of personal reasons.
"This was not an easy decision but, after careful consideration, it was a necessary one that is in the best interest of both team and player," the general manager said in a statement. We wish Jerry good fortune in his career.
The fifth-year option was not picked up by the Bolts.
He played in seven games this season but did not start. He forced a fumbled ball.
He had a sack in 54 games for the Bolts.
The San Francisco 49ers play the San Diego Padres on Sunday.
The Bolts are down to five interior linemen on their active roster, including Sebastian Joseph-Day, Morgan Fox, Otito Ogbonnia, Christian Covington and Breiden Feho.
