Tab Boyd joins Joe Gibbs Racing as Christopher Bell’s spotter

Tab Boyd is one of the most experienced spotters in the sport, previously working with Hendrick Motorsports, but he most recently worked with Ricky Stenhouse Jr. at Hyak Motorsports.

Hyak let Boyd go ahead of the race at Pocono, replacing him with Clayton Hughes. No official reason was given for the change, but it’s worth noting that Boyd was in the news earlier that same week for some controversial comments he made about Mexico City.

At the other end of the garage with Joe Gibbs Racing, Christopher Bell was getting adjusted to a world without long-time spotter Stevie Reeves, who quit the team.

However, rosters for this weekend’s race at EchoPark Speedway (Atlanta) show that JGR has changed it up once again. Enter Boyd, who will spot for Bell for this weekend and beyond. The exact terms of the deal are not known, but the change has been confirmed by JGR.
