Declined, with "out" (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

opted

'declined with out' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for opted that I've seen before include "Depot (anag.)" , "Chose from depot" , "Selected from depot" , "Made choice, selected" , "Chosen - elected" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
