Ragnow retiring? - MaroonBells - 06-02-2025
A little hard to believe....

He’s been gutting out the last couple seasons on sheer will. Loved him coming out. That’s two big holes blasted in the iOL for the Lions.

Already gone from the depth chart. This seems real. So why do I not believe it? If true, that is a massive blow to the Lions.

Literally just turned 29 years old a week ago. Surprising and a blow for Detroit.

NFL twitted about this also.

Lions have now lost their starting center, a 3X All Pro some considered the best center in the league (he'll be replaced by a rookie), AND his next door neighbor, Kevin Zeitler, who had a 86.5 PFF grade last year. They're replacing Zeitler with Graham Glasgow who struggled and was benched late last year.
Their tackles are still very good, but their IOL might look a lot like ours last year. Maybe an opening for the Vikings.

And which team in the division just upgraded their IDL this off-season?

Didn't Ragnow go to High School in the Cities? Seems like it was Western Suburbs somewhere like Minnetonka. I know the Badgers recruited him pretty heavily.
Good luck to Ragnow. NFL lineman carry an unnatural amount of weight...it can take a heavy toll on the body.
It will be fun to see if Detroit ends up with a similar mess in the interior o-line this year as the Vikings have for several years.
