Christopher James Hogan (born October 24, 1988) is an American football wide receiver for the New England Patriots of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for one season at Monmouth after graduating from Penn State in 2010 on a lacrosse scholarship. He was originally signed by the San Francisco 49ers as an undrafted free agent in 2011 and has also been a member of the New York Giants, Miami Dolphins and Buffalo Bills. Hogan was featured prominently on the 2012 season of HBO's Hard Knocks, during which he garnered screen time after being nicknamed "7-Eleven" by Dolphins running back Reggie Bush because he's "always open."
