Raggett’s performance levels slowly but surely improved, though, and established himself alongside Christian Burgess in the centre of defence.
The 26-year-old has netted twice in 36 appearances, helping Jackett's side clinch a League One play-off spot after the season was curtailed on Tuesday.
Raggett’s out of contract at Carrow Road at the end of this month, although the Canaries do hold the club option for an additional year.

The Blues manager said: ‘We would be interested in keeping Sean here.
‘Raggett and Burgess has been a good centre-back partnership for me.
‘Our win rate when those two have been available has been very good.

‘As the games have come for him then he's got better and that is understandable.
‘He broke his ankle the season before last and took a little while to get into his rhythm.’
