Patriots' Hogan cleared to play in divisional round vs. Titans

New England Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan was removed from the team's injury report on Thursday and has been cleared to play in Saturday's divisional-round game against the Tennessee Titans, according to ESPN's Mike Reiss.

It marks Hogan's return from the shoulder injury that ruined a potential career year, sidelining him for all but one game since Oct. 29.

His regular season finished with 34 receptions for 439 yards and five touchdowns in nine games, as he served primarily as a starter opposite Brandin Cooks. He still set a career best in touchdowns.

The trio of Phillip Dorsett, Danny Amendola, and Kenny Britt will likely see smaller roles with Hogan's return.
