The Detroit Lions got at least some good news Saturday as center Frank Ragnow avoided serious injury in the team's preseason loss to the Buffalo Bills.

NFL Network reported that Ragnow suffered only a "minor ankle sprain" in the second quarter of Friday's game, when he had to be helped off the field by two Lions trainers.
