This is interesting. It feels like it’s obvious that Frank retired because he was physically fighting through injuries and pain, and it got to a point that he no longer could play the game in an enjoyable, effective, or healthy way.
The whole purpose of a signing bonus is to be a guarantee up front that insures a salary irregardless of performance metrics, or most importantly injuries that could compromise your career in the future.
What makes this interesting is that Frank likely retired “voluntarily”, meaning, he wasn’t declared medically unfit to play by a doctor, which allows the team to ask for a prorated amount of his signing bonus back. Had he been medically deemed unfit to play football by a doctor before he retired, the team wouldn’t be able to recoup part of the signing bonus.
Let me say this first, if a player truly just retires without reason, or because they’ve lost the desire to play, I completely get and acknowledge teams should be able to recoup compensation when players don’t fulfill there contractual obligations and agreements.
However, Frank was known for being hurt and playing through injuries most players wouldn’t play through constantly. Broken foot, a torn pec, multiple knee injuries, back issues. There was always something, and I’m sure he was continuously dealing with multiple ailments to try and continue playing the game. His body clearly had deteriorated to a degree that made football no longer a viable option, physically, and probably mentally. In my opinion, the signing bonus is supposed to protect players from future physical ailments limiting their availability on the field, that’s one of the reasons you want more guaranteed money upfront.
So while I get that the team has a right to ask for money back, in the spirit of the agreement, I think it’s bullshit Frank is being asked to return money. This was clearly a player that the game had physically taken its toll on, and his body was clearly no longer holding up to the rigors of the NFL. It wasn’t just some player deciding he didn’t want to play anymore, it wasn’t that simple, and these signing bonuses are there to protect players from the inevitable injuries they incur on the field.

The #Lions made Frank Ragnow return part of his signing bonus after retiring early, continuing a franchise policy that dates back to Barry Sanders and Calvin Johnson, per President Rod Wood, via @DaveBirkett: “Our precedent goes all the way back to Barry Sanders… And I think the reality is, they’re not paying back their money, they’re returning our money, because they were paid in advance for services that they hadn’t completed.” More here: freep.com/story/sports/n…

🆘🚨He doesn’t bark or react, he just… freezes 😭That’s how this baby copes.
When he’s scared… he just stands there, completely still… hoping nothing bad will happen because somewhere along the way, he learned that being quiet was safer than being seen.
Angel is the same dog who waited in the same place for a family that never came back. The same loyal soul who didn’t understand why they disappeared…
only that they did 💔
And now, in boarding, he’s still unsure…still figuring out that the world can be kind again. But there are little breakthroughs… a treat taken from a hand, a moment of trust, however small. He’s trying, sweet boy🥺
Angel is a sensitive, gentle soul who needs time, patience…and someone who understands that trust like his is not given, it’s earned softly.
🚨 Our trainer Redemptiontails is ready to help him build confidence and come out of that fear…but we really need a foster in Southern California so he can work with them🙏🏻
📍 Foster needed in Southern California
🐾 All expenses covered, fostering is 100% free with @StacyHopeRescue
📌 Full guidance and support provided
🤍 Adoption applications are open
📧 contact@stacyhoperescue.org

Maybe the right person will finally notice him?

I can definitely tell that she deserves all the love and support! One of the hardest working women I know, stay strong baby girl. And to some of the IWC as I mentioned in a previous statement and applies here:
That is not fandom. That is hate.
Love you so much Thea and my other peers who have gone through this too!
THEA HA!L@theahail_wwe
spread positivity. too much hate is in this world, don’t add anymore to it.

if this is factual…I can’t even comprehend it lol
Sam at least got the Vikings to the playoffs before getting his deal. DJ blew out his Achilles.
Absurd ask if true

Per @AlbertBreer, the #Colts offered QB Daniel Jones a contract similar to the one Sam Darnold signed with the Seahawks (3 years $100.5 million). Jones’s camp counter offered a deal which would pay him around $50 million per year.
English
@HolderStephen @StampedeBlue The qb is garbage and the wr is very good. So bad calculus
English
On the Daniel Jones vs Alec Pierce tag dilemma, I'm not sure why anyone is surprised a team would opt to tag a QB over a WR (if it ultimately goes that way).
Pierce is clearly a great player but the QB will usually take precedent in this league. It is what it is.

@Colts @StampedeBlue If we lose pierce then Ballard better be gone asap

we have placed the transition tag on QB Daniel Jones.
