Hollister has secured a spot on the Patriots' 53-man roster, CSN New England reports.
The player he beat out to make the team, fellow tight end James O'Shaughnessy, was claimed by the Jaguars, so unless the Patriots counter with another move at the position, then the undrafted Hollister has landed a spot with the team thanks to a strong preseason. He's clearly behind both Rob Gronkowski and Dwayne Allen on the Patriots' depth chart, but Hollister's veteran counterparts have had injury woes in the past, so the Wyoming product could enter the fantasy equation down the road with a break or two in his favor.
