When it comes to underdogs or sleepers in this weekend's race at Daytona International Speedway, don't overlook 23XI Racing driver Riley Herbst. Remember, Herbst was running in fifth on the final lap of this year's Daytona 500 but spun out and ended up finishing 17th. He had the 13th-best average running position in that race. Additionally, Herbst has a top-10 finish at Talladega on his record (in the fall of 2023) as well as a top-10 final result in the 2023 Daytona 500. This weekend, the No. 35 Toyota will roll off the starting grid from 33rd place for Saturday night's Coke Zero Sugar 400, which instantly makes Herbst a viable option in DFS contests due to his place-differential upside. However, due to his limited Cup Series history and lackluster results, many DraftKings managerse are likely going to avoid the Toyota driver. There's a chance for DFS managers to gain some leverage on the field here with a cheap driver ($5,000 on DraftKings) that has sky-high potential.--Jordan McAbee
