Kaulig Addresses Tony Stewart Truck Series Rumors

Tony Stewart in a 2026 Truck Series race, that rumor took over the offseason like wildfire, and now Chris Rice himself has poured a little gasoline on it. Stewart, Kasey Kahne, Ram, and Kaulig are all being thrown into the same blender, and Rice did everything but shut the door on the idea. If anything, he cracked it open wider. So, what exactly did he say, and how real is this comeback buzz?

• Did Kaulig actually discuss Tony Stewart and Kasey Kahne as potential one-off Truck Series drivers for Ram?
• Why did Chris Rice use phrases like as of right now and yet that makes the rumor feel more alive?
• What would convince Tony Stewart, after nearly a decade away from NASCAR, to strap back into a truck?
• Is this a realistic 2026 possibility or just the offseason doing what the offseason does best?

Chris Rice has always been a straight shooter, but he also knows how to keep the hype machine humming. His comments were careful, but they were far from a denial, and that alone has fans wondering if a Stewart or Kahne return might be more than nostalgia talk. And with Ram gearing up for a flashy launch and already teasing big names, the timing feels almost too perfect. Could Tony Stewart really pull off one more NASCAR moment, even as a one-off, and where would you want to see him race if he does?
