Frank Ragnow’s retirement now official, Lions make 1 minor roster move

As the Detroit Lions welcomed rookies back to the facility on Wednesday, they also made a couple of roster moves official. For one, Frank Ragnow has officially been placed on the reserve/retired list, making his retirement official.

Ragnow announced in an Instagram post back in June that he would be ending his career after just seven seasons with the Lions.

“These past couple of months have been very trying as I’ve come to the realization that my football journey is ending and I’m officially retiring from the NFL,” Ragnow wrote. “I’ve tried to convince myself that I’m feeling good but I’m not and it’s time to prioritize my health and my families future.
