Tyler Reddick Looks to Continue Momentum at the 2026 Autotrader 400
Following his victory in the season-opening Daytona 500, Tyler Reddick heads to Atlanta Motor Speedway for the 2026 Autotrader 400. The NASCAR Cup Series race is scheduled for Sunday at 3 p.m. ET at EchoPark Speedway, marking one of two NASCAR events at the track this season. With no active driver boasting more than two wins at Atlanta, the 2026 Autotrader 400 presents a wide-open competition for NASCAR at Atlanta bets.
Odds Favor Elliott, Blaney, and Logano
As of February 15, 2026, Chase Elliott, Ryan Blaney, and Joey Logano are co-favorites with +1000 odds at FanDuel Sportsbook [FanDuel]. Other contenders include William Byron and Austin Cindric at +1400. Surprisingly, Reddick, fresh off his Daytona 500 win, is listed as a +2500 longshot.
Expert Predictions: Fading Logano, Backing Hamlin
NASCAR analyst Mike McClure, with a proven model that has nailed 29 winners since 2021 and 11 in 2025, is advising bettors to fade Joey Logano despite his co-favorite status. McClure points to Logano’s inconsistent performance at EchoPark Speedway, noting that six active drivers have better average finishes there. Logano finished 12th in the 2025 spring race and 28th in 2024, and his last appearance in June saw him start from pole position, lead 51 laps, but ultimately finish 36th after an accident.
McClure is too projecting a strong showing from Denny Hamlin (+1800). Hamlin is coming off a successful Daytona 500 as a co-owner of 23XI Racing and achieved his best-ever Cup Series finish last year, securing second place. He has six wins and 14 top-5 finishes. Hamlin has also demonstrated consistent performance at Atlanta, finishing sixth in both the 2025 and 2023 spring races, and previously won at the track in 2012.
Longshot Potential
McClure’s model has identified a longshot contender with odds of +2000 or greater who could potentially stun the field at Atlanta. [SportsLine] has the full list of predictions and best bets.
