After Failed Physical, Frank Ragnow Will Not Return to Detroit Lions
Four-time Pro Bowl center Frank Ragnow failed his physical due to a Grade 3 hamstring strain and will miss the entire 2025 season, Detroit Lions announced.
- On Saturday, the Detroit Lions announced four-time Pro Bowl center Frank Ragnow failed his physical after reporting to the team facility in Detroit on Friday and will miss the 2025 season.
- Having retired in June citing future health, Frank Ragnow had been weighing a return for about five to six weeks before unretiring Wednesday.
- The Lions had hoped Frank Ragnow would boost their offensive interior in Week 14, but without him, pressure on Jared Goff, quarterback, has increased as he’s been sacked 26 times.
- With Ragnow out, the Detroit Lions must cobble together a functional interior offensive line and make a strong push to reach the postseason without that Pro-Bowl reinforcement this season.
- The Lions still hold Frank Ragnow's contractual rights for this year and next, and he started all 96 games from 2018-24, earning four Pro Bowl selections.
