Patriots WR Chris Hogan defines thigh injury as 'minor'

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan left the team's 34-16 victory over the Houston Texans in the second half with a thigh injury, sparking a question on how it might affect his availability and/or effectiveness in Sunday's AFC Championship Game.

Hogan doesn't sound concerned.

"I'm feeling good. I just had a little minor setback in the game, but I'm working back every single day, feeling better every day," Hogan said Tuesday afternoon in the locker room after players broke from their meetings.

Hogan, who totaled 38 receptions for 680 yards and four touchdowns in the regular season, had left the sideline in the second half for further evaluation before returning in uniform to join his teammates.
