Hasty is making a push to secure a spot in the Patriots' backfield ahead of Week 1, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
While Rhamondre Stevenson and Antonio Gibson are roster locks, Hasty and Kevin Harris could be competing for the team's No. 3 RB role. It's possible that the Patriots end up keeping four backs on their initial 53-man roster, but either way, the 5-foot-8, 205-pound Hasty remains in contention to secure a depth/change-of-pace role in the team's backfield.
