The Patriots’ offense has been rolling even without Chris Hogan.

This was expected after Hogan did not practice this week. A right shoulder injury is keeping him sidelined with no return date in sight.
In eight games, Hogan has caught 33 passes for 438 yards and five scores. However, all of those scores came over his first five games. Over the last three games he has been active in, Hogan has caught just 10 catches for 150 yards and no scores.
If Hogan does not return soon, he could lose snaps to other talented Patriots’ receivers even when he returns.
Fantasy Advice: With Hogan out again, that means Danny Amendola and Phillip Dorsett will continue to have bigger roles in this offense. As for Hogan, despite how well he played earlier this season, he is now someone you should cut heading into the fantasy playoffs.
