NegativeDepth ChartAug 14, 2026
Veteran running back signed by the Patriots to compete for the RB3 role alongside Jam Miller, Hassan Haskins, and Lan Larison. Head coach Mike Vrabel indicated it is "probably too early to tell" on Hasty's fit, noting the team "just got them yesterday to be able to get them ready for the game." Vrabel stated he has prior experience with Hasty and likes both him and Haskins personally, describing them as "probably two different style of backs." The team will evaluate both veterans as potential depth options behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson.

Over his one and a half seasons in Foxborough, Hasty was used as a depth running back and kickoff return option, playing 17 games and touching the ball 30 times for 128 yards and a touchdown while averaging 23.8 yards on 10 kickoff returns. The signing comes after the Patriots also signed free agent Hassan Haskins and waived rookie Myles Montgomery, indicating continued depth chart shuffling at the position.
