Chris Hogan delivered on some of his preseason sleeper hype in his first game with Tom Brady at the helm, catching 4 passes for 114 yards. He left the game temporarily with a head injury, but was able to return to action, so he should be good to go for next week's matchup against Cincinnati Bengals.

Cincy has a talented secondary, but they have struggled against opposing receivers recently, giving up big days to Emmanuel Sanders (9-117-2), Demaryius Thomas (6-100-1), and Cole Beasley (4-53-1). Following a home matchup against the Bengals, Hogan will face a suspect Pittsburgh Steelers secondary.

With three decent matchups to begin his tenure with Brady, Hogan has a real chance to gain some traction as a vital part of this high-scoring offense. His upside makes him worth a speculative add in all formats.
