It is not a secret that Joey Logano has been in a rut of late. He is far from the only driver but the Team Penske racer just has not put up the results. Logano does have three top-tens in his last six races at Pocono but has not truly contended. His best finish was seventh in that span. That is not much to hang one's hat on for the No. 22 Ford. Logano has finished outside the top-20 in his last three races. Even though he has two wins since May 1st, the driver has mostly struggled staying in the top ten consistently. --Chris Wassel - RotoBaller

Joey Logano starts fifth at Kansas on Sunday. The track has historically been very good for him, as he won three times there, most recently in 2020. However, in the Next Gen era, he has rarely been much of a race factor, leading only 15 laps combined with this chassis after leading more laps than that nine times with the Gen-6. Logano's team seems to only focus on specific races lately, making sure to win once in the regular season and as many opening-round races in the playoffs as possible while somewhat neglecting all the others. The strategy obviously works in terms of winning championships, but now that he did advance to the playoffs with his win at Texas, it seems he's going to have a long string of mediocre runs while focusing on the playoffs, and it could start here. The Penske cars obviously have speed, but one would be hard-pressed to think it is a good idea to start Logano in the regular season after he has won, especially when he qualifies as well as fifth.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller

Joey Logano of Team Penske won Sunday's Wurth 400 at Texas Motor Speedway. Logano started Sunday's race from 27th, and he spent the entire race quietly making his way to the front of the pack. In the first stage, Logano made up a couple of positions quickly, but could not get past 19th by the end of the stage. In the second stage, Logano continued to move up through pit strategy and methodically passed other drivers. The No. 22 Ford driver barely cracked the top 10 by the end of the second stage, as he placed ninth and earned two stage points. In the final stage, Logano stayed out of trouble and kept his car clean as others wrecked out of the race, allowing him to reach third place on lap 251 behind Michael McDowell and teammate Ryan Blaney. On the ensuing restart, Logano had a fast enough car to pass Blaney and then make it through McDowell, who ended up crashing with three laps to go, sending the race into overtime. Logano held off the field in overtime and nabbed his first victory of the 2025 season and the 37th of his entire Cup career.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller

Joey Logano and his No. 22 Ford have been surprisingly slow at Texas Motor Speedway this weekend. In practice on Saturday morning, Logano ended up 31st-fastest out of 38 cars, and then in qualifying he was only able to muster the 27th-fastest lap, meaning he will start on the inside of row 14 when the Würth 400 goes green on Sunday. While this means Logano will have solid Place Differential upside for DFS players to consider, you have to wonder what his true upside is this weekend. Logano finished second here at Texas back in 2022, but the last two years haven't been as kind to the Cup Series Champion, as he ended up 21st in 2023 and 11th last year. On a positive note, the No. 22 Ford looked solid on the long runs in practice, as Joey ranked ninth-best in 20-lap average during the session. Earlier this season,, Logano finished 15th at Las Vegas, 14th at Homestead, and 13th at Darlington--which are all intermediate tracks like Texas, but not super similar. At $9,500 on DraftKings, the Place Differential upside is definitely there for Logano, but he is by no means a slam-dunk DFS option on Sunday. If he's only able to muster a teens finish in the Würth 400, it may be better to pivot to other fantasy options that could give you more value upside. With that being said, it's still a good idea to have some Logano exposure with your lineups.--Jordan McAbee

Arguable pre-race favorite Joey Logano had arguably the best run at Talladega, leading 24 laps, posting the race's best average running position of 7, and finishing fifth on track before being disqualified for a missing spoiler brace. Although Logano ran in the top ten for most of Stage 1, he burned more fuel while running out front and did not earn any stage points, but finished second in Stage 2 before he was stripped of his points post-race. He embarrassed himself thoroughly by lashing out at his teammate Austin Cindric for costing him the stage "win" and got his comeuppance when Cindric won the race while Logano was relegated to a last-place finish. Nonetheless, despite only one top ten finish in the first nine races, Logano has still collected enough stage points to be sitting in a tie for 10th with Ross Chastain 36 points above the playoff cutline.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
