Is Erik Jones Worth Rostering for DFS at Phoenix?
Legacy Motor Club's Erik Jones will start in the 15th position after qualifying for the NASCAR Cup Series Championship at Phoenix Raceway. Jones will start inside the top 20 for the sixth consecutive race in a row at Phoenix. In 18 races at the site, Jones has 10 top-20 finishes with four inside the top 10. Through 35 races this season, Jones has 19 top-20 finishes with an average finish of 20.3. In practice for Sunday's race at Phoenix, Jones ranked 17th in overall lap averages, eighth in 10 consecutive lap averages, and seventh in 15 consecutive lap averages. Compared to most other drivers around his salary range of $6,400, Jones does not have as much upside due to his starting position. Based on his recent Phoenix results with only three top-20s in the past six races at the site, Jones is a bit of a risk to consider for DFS. However, he is worth considering for tournament lineups as his practice speeds are greater than most around his salary.
