Surprise Return: Frank Ragnow Back with Detroit Lions
27 Nov
Summary
- Frank Ragnow reversed his retirement decision to rejoin the Detroit Lions.
- His return bolsters the offensive line due to injuries to other key players.
- Ragnow has a history of playing through significant injuries for the team.
Detroit Lions center Frank Ragnow has reversed his decision to retire and is returning to the team. The four-time Pro Bowl selection had previously announced his retirement in June, citing health and family priorities. His reinstatement from the reserve/retired list offers a significant boost to the Lions' offensive line.
Ragnow's return comes at a crucial juncture for the Lions (7-4) as they battle for NFC North supremacy. The team is currently facing injuries to key offensive linemen Graham Glasgow and Christian Mahogany, making Ragnow's availability particularly timely. His experience and resilience, known for playing through serious injuries like a fractured throat and torn pectoral muscle, will be vital.
The Lions also activated defensive end Marcus Davenport and offensive lineman Miles Frazier from injured reserve. However, several other players, including safety Kerby Joseph and receiver Kalif Raymond, were ruled out for the upcoming Thanksgiving Day game against the Green Bay Packers.
