Since Stewart has been out, Regan Smith and Jeff Burton have drive the No. 14.
Assuming Stewart doesn’t qualify for the playoffs, this will mark the second year in a row NASCAR will be missing one of its stars during the championship run. Stewart was sidelined for the final 15 races in 2013 after breaking his leg in a sprint car accident. He required three surgeries and months of rehabilitation to be able to get back in a Cup car for this year’s Daytona 500 in February.
