Still isn't anything confirmed but I have heard JAR as a possibility as well. And with the news that the #27 WILL be a full time car next season, this could be a possibility.

Some driver contract confirmations: @chris_gollon reports Kaulig Racing confirmed to him A.J. Allmendinger will be back with the team in 2027. @JohnNewby_ shares he connected with Spire Motorsports and confirmed Michael McDowell is still under contract with the team for 2027
Not that there was cause for doubt, but Kaulig Racing team leadership just confirmed to me that A.J. Allmendinger will indeed be back in 2027. #NASCAR
