Kyle Busch Could Win at Talladega, But He's a Very Risky DFS Play
7 months agoKyle Busch could definitely contend for the win in this weekend's GEICO 500 at Talladega Superspeedway, but that doesn't make him a slam-dunk DFS play. Rowdy qualified fourth for this weekend's race at 'Dega, and while he did win this event one year ago (in addition to finish third the year prior), Busch will likely need to get to victory lane and lead plenty of laps this weekend in order to make it into the optimal lineup on DraftKings. Therefore, it's probably better to stay away from Rowdy in DFS this weekend. With that being said, Busch can still challenge for the win at Talladega, as he has been strong on superspeedways as of late; he has the fourth-best average running position at Daytona and Talladega since the start of the 2023 season. Many sportsbooks have Kyle Busch's odds of winning the GEICO 500 in the 16-to-1 range heading into race day.
