Multiple reports have identified Front Row Motorsports driver David Ragan as a candidate to fill in for the injured Kyle Busch at Joe Gibbs Racing. Ragan, a two-time Sprint Cup race winner, has driven full-time for Front Row since 2012.

Camping World Truck Series full-timer Erik Jones has also been linked to possibly replacing Busch in the No. 18 Toyota. But according to NASCAR on NBC’s Dale Jarrett, Ragan’s experience at the Cup level makes him a better fit for JGR.

You can hear what he and the rest of the NASCAR AMERICA crew have to say about the subject in the clip above.
