Jimmie Johnson Returns At Kentucky
4 years agoAfter testing positive for COVID-19 and missing last week's race at Indianapolis, Hendrick Motorsports driver Jimmie Johnson returns to the seat of the No. 48 at Kentucky Speedway. The seven-time champion was cleared by NASCAR after he tested negative two straight days. Johnson will start from 20th in Sunday's Quaker State 400. In nine starts at Kentucky, Johnson has five top-10 finishes, but he has struggled mightily over the last few races at the track. Johnson has failed to score a top-10 since 2015 and has only led three laps since 2013. Johnson's farewell season has not gone to plan, and it may be smart to avoid him in DFS until we see how the short absence affected him. If players are willing to take a risk, Johnson does provide a little upside in the position differential department, but it's probably safe to hold him out of lineups this week.
