‘The exact same butterflies.’ Chris Hogan likened his PLL debut to his first NFL game

Former Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan made his long-awaited Premier Lacrosse League debut Saturday as a member of Cannons Lacrosse Club.

Hogan, who didn’t play in the league’s opening weekend at Gillette Stadium, was grateful for the opportunity to compete in Atlanta. He was disappointed that Cannons LC (1-2) lost a back-and-forth battle to defending champion Whipsnakes Lacrosse Club (2-0), 15-14, but he acknowledged that the experience still meant a great deal on a personal level.

“Honestly, the bus ride over that I had today, compared to my first NFL game, was the exact same feeling,” Hogan said.
