After spending the first two-thirds of the 2025 season on his couch, Pro Bowl center Frank Ragnow announced on Wednesday that he is un-retiring from the NFL on Wednesday and returning to the Detroit Lions.
This announcement means that Ragnow will now likely be on the field when the Lions travel to face the Minnesota Vikings inside U.S. Bank Stadium in a Week 17 showdown on Christmas Day.
It's pretty significant news, especially since Minnesota's defense was able to generate a ton of pressure when they beat Detroit earlier this season.
Ragnow's return will certainly make that performance much harder for the Vikings to duplicate, but that's also assuming he will be back to playing at a Pro Bowl level by the time the two teams face off in Week 17.
