Tyler Reddick Finishes Seventh at Kansas Despite Distractions
Tyler Reddick's mind was obviously elsewhere as his four-month old son Rookie is currently in an intensive care unit in North Carolina where he has been hooked up to a ventilator and is showing signs of heart failure. Despite that fact and a botched pit stop, Reddick recovered to be an outside contender for the win on the race's late restarts. While his teammate Bubba Wallace led on the final two restarts, Reddick restarted behind him but Wallace grew upset when he attempted to pass him for the lead instead of pushing him past Christopher Bell. After failing to score any stage points and fading to a seventh-place finish, Reddick fell 29 points behind Joey Logano for the last transfer spot in the Round of 8 in 11th. To pass three drivers from that far behind, he would likely need to win at the Charlotte roval, but since Shane van Gisbergen will be entered, that is not likely to happen.
