I just tested something on my iPhone.. could be your problem.
I'm guessing you also cannot delete apps?
check this:
Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions > iTunes & App Store Purchases > Deleting Apps
make sure that's set to 'Allow'
When I tested by setting that to 'Don't Allow' it also took away the option to Offload Apps
Then if you want to delete some apps:
You can delete from the App Library by locating the app and tap/hold, select Delete App
OR you can go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage > [app name] > Delete

Note that 'removing' apps is not the same as deleting apps. All removing apps does is take it off your Home Screen, it will still be on your device and reside in the App Library
here is a video that may help you save storage space

where are you trying to offload apps from?
You would need to do it in Settings > General > iPhone Storage > [app name]
