2023 Fantasy Outlook
Burton will be back for another season of action with Wood Brothers Racing. He was a part of last year's deep rookie class. Burton nabbed one Top-5 and two Top-10 finishes in the 36-event schedule. It was a reasonably good performance for a driver that made the jump from Xfinity to the Cup Series with just two seasons in NASCAR junior circuit. Now Burton will look to build on that campaign with a better performance in 2023. The young driver will be reunited with Brian Wilson at crew chief and the two will look to build on the solid foundation they laid down in Burton's rookie season. He will look for more week-to-week consistency and to improve on the 22.8 average finish he posted in 2022. Burton will face some stiff competition to improve as there is quite a bit of parity and excellence, even in the lower tiers of the driver field. Read Past Outlooks

Wood Brothers Racing closed the book on a two-season run with Matt DiBenedetto at the end of last year. Now they're looking to rookie Burton to carry them into the future. This team has produced steady results since 2015 with drivers like Ryan Blaney, Paul Menard and DiBenedetto. They may take a few steps back in the upcoming campaign turning to the relatively untested Burton. The 21-year-old talent has two Xfinity Series seasons under his belt and just one full truck series campaign. Results have been a bit sporadic and uneven in his experience in the lower divisions of NASCAR, but the Wood Brothers team was not phased in parting ways with DiBenedetto and signing Burton to drive the team's No. 21 Ford. Brian Wilson comes onboard with the team to serve as crew chief, and he will quickly look to form a bond with Burton so they can make a serious challenge for Rookie of the Year in 2022.
