The Detroit Lions will be without their Pro Bowl center for the second-straight week.
Frank Ragnow fractured his throat a couple weeks ago, and is officially inactive for Saturday’s contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Ragnow returned to practice late in the week, but it appears doctors are still recommending he take more time off to protect his voice and vocal cords.
The Lions will have the services of left tackle Taylor Decker available in Week 16. Decker is dealing with a groin injury, but he is active and expected to start on Saturday.
