DETROIT -- Four-time Pro-Bowl center Frank Ragnow is coming out of retirement and returning to the Lions, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
He has decided to unretire and return to the Lions because he "loves the game," one source told Schefter.
Wednesday was the deadline for Ragnow to come out of retirement and be eligible to play this season, sources added. If a player is on a club's reserve-retired list, he must be reinstated prior to that team's Week 13 game. Detroit hosts NFC North division rival Green Bay on Thursday in its annual Thanksgiving Day appearance.
