Diehards Line:
The 33-year-old once starred in lacrosse at Penn State before playing a season of college football with Monmouth University. He'll be eligible for selection by one of the PLL's eight clubs in the March 25 entry draft. Hogan spent the 2020 campaign with the Jets, catching 14 passes for 118 yards in five games before going on injured reserve and being waived in December. The former undrafted free agent is best known for his days with the Patriots, where he participated in three consecutive Super Bowls and won two. He also played four seasons with the Bills and had brief stints with the 49ers, Giants, Dolphins and Patriots. If this marks the end of his 10-year NFL career, Hogan finishes with 216 receptions and 18 touchdowns in the regular season and 34 and four in the postseason.
