Ross Chastain was able to maintain track position in his last few races but will need to make some moves on Sunday in Kansas. He starts in the 24th position as the Chip Ganassi Racing driver did not rank high enough in the metrics. Now, Chastain did lead 12 laps at Talladega and that could carry over some momentum this week. It shows that the car has some potential. How much is that? No one truly knows. This week's race will be an exercise in timing for Chastain. If he can time things right, the driver could slip into the top-15 even. --Chris Wassel - RotoBaller

Ross Chastain qualifies poorly and gets a good finish. Rise, rinse, repeat. Trackhouse Racing qualifying has been generally terrible this season and yesterday was no exception as Chastain qualified 31st for today's race at Texas. However, he's toned down his aggression and has now developed a plodding, methodical style more reminiscent of Chris Buescher, which is reaping dividends this season. Unlike Buescher, however, Chastain has been good at Texas with this car, finishing second in 2023 and leading 33 laps last year and winning Stage 2 before a last-lap crash. Texas is a track where strategy plays are paramount, and while Trackhouse may have slow cars they tend to have brilliant race strategies so you can almost count on both Chastain and Daniel Suárez finishing better than they run. Based on his performances this season and his poor qualifying, Chastain is almost a must-have for DFS.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller

Ross Chastain should be one of your most-used drivers in DFS this weekend. The Trackhouse Racing driver has been one of the strongest at Talladega Superspeedway in the Next Gen era, with the fifth-best driver rating among active drivers in the six races here with this new car. Additionally, Chastain went to victory lane here back in 2022 and also had a fourth-place finish to his credit that season. This weekend, the Watermelon Man will roll off the starting grid from 32nd-place when the Jack Link's 500 goes green, which means Chastain has very high Place Differential upside for DFS players. Because of that, along with his very strong track history, you should have plenty of Chastain exposure with your daily fantasy lineups at Talladega on Sunday. At Atlanta earlier this season--which is another drafting track--Ross came home eighth after starting back in 33rd. --Jordan McAbee

Trackhouse Racing's Ross Chastain obtained a starting position of 35th after qualifying for the Food City 500 at Bristol Motor Speedway. This will be the fifth time in his Cup career that Chastain will start 30th or lower in a race at Bristol. In nine previous races at the last great coliseum, Chastain has four top-20 finishes, which all came during his last five appearances at the site. Through eight races so far in the 2025 season, Chastain has six finishes of 12th or better. In practice, Chastain ranked 36th in overall lap averages while displaying top-20 speeds in the 15 and 20 consecutive lap average categories. Chastain looked off in practice but has been solid at Bristol in the last few years, obtained favorable results this season, and has plenty of upside this week. DFS players should utilize the driver of the No. 1 Chevrolet this week in all formats, as he is someone who can compete for a top-20 finish.--Sean Engel - RotoBaller

Ross Chastain has a history of qualifying poorly at Darlington and getting good finishes, and that continued again in Sunday's race as he started 25th before eventually finishing seventh. He had just worked his way into the top 10 for the first time in the middle of Stage 2 when he got trapped a lap down after pitting right before a caution came out. Although he was able to take the wave-around, he was unable to make much progress because he had older tires than the leaders. However, he slowly advanced from 15th to ninth in Stage 3 before grabbing two positions on the race-ending restart. Despite not scoring any stage points, he still moved from 19 points to 31 points above the playoff cut line and broke his tie for 12th in points with Chase Briscoe.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
