Bristol's Aaron Hernandez had another big day for the New England Patriots Sunday in a victory over the San Diego Chargers, but it wasn't all good for the tight end. Hernandez injured his knee during the fourth quarter and missed some time. He was limping in the locker room after the game.

"I'm a little sore," Hernandez said. "We’ll see what it is. I'm just getting ready for this next game."

Hernandez caught seven passes for 62 yards and a touchdown during a 35-21 victory in Foxborough. His tight end teammate, Rob Gronkowski, caught four passes for 86 yards and two touchdowns.

Hernandez, the Florida product via Bristol Central, has 14 receptions for 165 yards and two touchdowns this season.
