[autotag]Joe Gibbs Racing[/autotag] “expects” Martin Truex Jr. to return for the 2025 NASCAR Cup Series season, but no official decision has been made yet. If Truex does retire, it opens the door for one of NASCAR’s best organizations to need a driver. In that case, two notable drivers from Ford have been mentioned as possible replacements.
[autotag]Noah Gragson[/autotag] and [autotag]Chase Briscoe[/autotag] could be possible replacements at Joe Gibbs Racing if Truex retires, according to FOX Sports’ Bob Pockrass. Briscoe could be a “possible candidate,” while Gragson’s ties to Bass Pro Shops, a major sponsor of the No. 19 car, shouldn’t rule him out of a potential return to Toyota.
Joe Gibbs Racing has good options in the lower levels of NASCAR, such as Chandler Smith, but could desire a driver with more experience in the Cup Series. If the NASCAR organization believes that experience is the better route, it could open the door for Gragson or Briscoe to drive the No. 19 Cup car in 2025.
