An American Airlines flight returned to JFK after hitting a sign during takeoff
The sign "directs pilots as they're going down the runway," Coleman said. The plane hit the sign because it was slightly off center during takeoff, Coleman said.

I just checked flightaware and it was an Airbus A321 that hit the sign. Those aren't big planes, so I would question their description that it was "slightly off center", sound more like they almost ran off the side of the run way.
