Chris Hogan reaches deal with New Orleans Saints, source says

METAIRIE, La. -- After moonlighting as a lacrosse player this summer, veteran wide receiver Chris Hogan will return to the NFL and try to help the New Orleans Saints make up for the absence of injured star Michael Thomas.

Hogan, 33, agreed to a deal with the Saints on Monday, a source told ESPN's Mike Reiss, confirming an NFL Network report.

As expected, Thomas was officially placed on the PUP list Monday to start training camp. He is expected to miss time at the start of the regular season after having ankle surgery in June.
