UPDATE: According to Bozi Tatarevic, Pat Gray will not be able to compete this weekend. Blaney will get Graham Stoddard from the No. 4 team of Noah Gragson.
It is my understanding that Pat Gray will not be able to compete this weekend so Blaney is getting another jackman change.

ORIGINAL POST 4-16-2026: Team Penske has made a change to the No. 12 pit crew that services Ryan Blaney’s car in the NASCAR Cup Series, the team confirmed Thursday morning.
Patrick Gray will join as the team’s new jackman for Sunday’s race at Kansas Speedway. Gray began the season as the jackman on the No. 21 Wood Brothers Racing Ford driven by Josh Berry.
Gray replaces Landon Honeycutt, while Honeycutt joins the No. 21 roster.
The move comes as the No. 12 pit crew has been under scrutiny this season. Although Blaney sits second in the points standings with one win, three top fives and six top 10s in eight races, his pit crew has statistically been ranked among the lowest in the Cup Series. Per NASCAR Insights, the No. 12 crew ranked 35th of 36 full-time entries in season-long stats following last week’s race at Bristol Motor Speedway. Blaney finished second but lost a total of 11 spots on pit road that day, his crew ranking 30th on the day.
