Alex Bowman said he’s heard the rumor that he could be out of the No. 48 car after this season if he doesn’t advance beyond the first round of the playoffs.
“It got to a point where I picked up the phone and called everybody,” Bowman said Wednesday in response to a question from NBC Sports at NASCAR Cup playoff media day.
“Everybody said ‘Absolutely not.’ So that’s really all I have to go on. I don’t have a reason to believe anything other than that. There’s no ‘Oh, you need to do this to keep your job. It’s absolutely not (the case). Everything is fine.’
