Frank Ragnow’s Determination: Lions Star Insists on Playing Through Chest Injury

Lions coach discusses Frank Ragnow's determination to play through a chest injury, showcasing his stubborn resolve and dedication to the team.

In a dramatic turn of events, ***three-time Pro Bowl center*** Frank Ragnow suffered a partial tear in his pectoral muscle during the Detroit Lions’ nail-biting 20-13 victory over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. Yet, in a testament to his unyielding resilience, Ragnow plans to suit up for the Lions’ next game on Monday against the visiting Seattle Seahawks, head coach Dan Campbell disclosed in an interview with 97.1 The Ticket in Southfield, Michigan.

“First of all, Frank is stubborn. He’s a stubborn Frank. He’s tough, he’s stubborn, that’s why he wants to play, and he always wants to play, but it’s something we’re still talking about right now,” Campbell said. “I’m not entirely sure what we’re going to do with it.”

The ironclad center even powered through the injury, appearing in all 68 offensive snaps against the Cardinals. That’s the kind of grit and determination this young team admires and thrives on.

“A lot of it depends on how you feel in the middle or end of the week,” Campbell said. “But he’s got some stuff going for him and he played through some of that last week. So we’re going to do what’s best for him and what’s best for us right now, ultimately. But you know what I think about Frank, all of you. We know that. We really appreciate him. It’s tough, man.”

The 28-year-old Ragnow has been an indomitable force, starting all three games this season, and amassing an impressive streak of all 83 games ever since the Lions selected him with the 20th overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.

The passion and drive embodied by professionals like Frank Ragnow light up the field and stand as beacons of inspiration not just for Detroit but for the entire NFL community. ***We tip our hats to his indomitable spirit.***
