Patriots' Chris Hogan cleared to play after shoulder injury

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots starting wide receiver Chris Hogan, who had missed seven of the final eight games of the regular season with a shoulder injury, has been cleared to play in Saturday's AFC divisional-round playoff game against the Tennessee Titans.

Hogan was officially removed from the team's injury report Thursday for the first time since injuring his shoulder in an Oct. 29 win over the Los Angeles Chargers.

His return should shake up the Patriots' depth chart, as he was paired with Brandin Cooks as the team's top two receivers when through the first half of the season.
