Arkin could fill Gilliam's fullback role; played hybrid position in summer.

Undrafted rookie tight end Tanner Arkin could be used as a fullback/H-back hybrid to replace Reggie Gilliam, a role he partially played during the summer. The source notes the Patriots have a chance to use this approach rather than bringing in an outside fullback replacement.
