In the days leading up to the Daytona 500, Kevin Harvick was sounding the alarm on 23XI Racing and Tyler Reddick. He now thinks the two are in a great spot fresh off their Daytona 500 win. Harvick believes that Reddick is on a star trajectory following his Daytona 500 win, saying that having Michael Jordan as his owner gives him a “unique advantage” going forward. “When you have that advantage and being able to go on shows that aren’t going to accept a NASCAR driver that just won any race, all [of] the sudden, it’s the NASCAR driver that drives for Michael Jordan [who is on these shows],” Harvick said on FOX Sports’ “NASCAR Raceday.” “It brings things to you that you might otherwise not have. That’s the type of situation where Michael Jordan just makes winning the Daytona 500 that much more special because of his reach.” Reddick was the first driver from Jordan’s 23XI Racing, which was formed in 2020, to win the Daytona 500. We don’t know what impact that win will have on Reddick’s career, but it’s undeniable that the win has helped him garner great attention. Some of Jordan’s interactions with Reddick following the win drew millions of views across FOX Sports’ social media channels. But as Jordan and 23XI Racing might help elevate Reddick, Harvick thinks that the 30-year-old driver is in the right mindset to capitalize on the moment. Harvick noted that when he went to speak with Reddick this past week, the driver arrived 10 minutes early to their interview as he remarked on the Daytona 500 winner’s maturity. “You could just hear it in his voice, he wanted to understand why he didn’t win last year. He wanted to understand what his weaknesses were. He wanted to understand all the things that were happening on the team,” Harvick said. “They had some conversations with each other to say what can we do better. “We’ll see as the year goes on, but for Tyler, it sure seems like he’s gone through a bunch of things that helped him mature.” Reddick’s win at the Daytona 500 certainly helped cool some of the rumors and chatter about his future with 23XI Racing. Prior to the race, Harvick wondered if this could be Reddick’s last year with 23XI Racing as he’s set to hit free agency at the end of the season. Now, after Reddick’s winless 2025 season, Harvick thinks we might just be seeing the start of something great for Reddick and 23XI Racing. “Our expectations for 23XI and Tyler are to be winners. Tyler Reddick went to 23XI to try and win more races and become that championship contender. When you start the year off by winning the biggest race of the year, you do the victory tour for winning the Daytona 500 and you put your name on that trophy next to all those great stars and hugging Michael Jordan, those are the expectations we have for the team and the driver.”Latest Sports News from FOX Sports
The Trump administration on Sunday halted disaster aid to states for long-term rebuilding projects in order to focus on emergency operations as the partial government shutdown enters its second week.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency “is scaling back to bare-minimum, life-saving operations only,” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said in a statement. “All non-emergency recovery work is paused.”
The funding freeze for projects stemming from past disasters adds a new source of uncertainty for states as they navigate the government’s shifting system for catastrophe response after President Donald Trump vowed to reduce aid for extreme weather.
It’s also a sign that political acrimony over Trump’s immigration crackdown has affected FEMA, which is housed with Immigration and Customs Enforcement under the Department of Homeland Security. Congressional Democrats have blocked a DHS spending bill over ICE’s aggressive tactics.
It’s the 11th time since 2003 that FEMA has suspended funding for long-term disaster-recovery projects, such as rebuilding public facilities, based on budget constraints.
The latest restriction was unusual because the agency had $7.1 billion available in its disaster fund in late January. Historically, FEMA has waited until the disaster fund drops to about $3 billion before it restricts spending.
FEMA officials told Congress last week that the fund had $9.6 billion, according to a senior congressional aide who was granted anonymity to discuss internal conversations. The fund’s balance increased in February because FEMA recovered aid that had been approved but not spent, the aide said.
On Sunday, Noem said DHS “must take emergency measures to preserve limited funds and personnel.” The announcement came days after FEMA employee travel was restricted by DHS.
Noem blamed Democrats for the shutdown, which she said forced her to halt the FEMA funding. Noem also suspended two DHS airport programs over the weekend that allowed some travelers to skip long lines at screening checkpoints and at customs entry stations. “These actions reflect the reality of operating without appropriations,” she said.
Noem, whose department includes the Transportation Security Administration, said she wanted to “refocus Department personnel on the majority of travelers.”
The TSA contradicted Noem hours after her announcement and said its PreCheck program at passenger screening checkpoints “remains operational with no change for the traveling public.”
That led some Democrats to criticize the administration for politicizing homeland security programs.
“These nitwits are at it again,” Rep. Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, the top Democrat on the House Homeland Security Committee, said in a statement, adding that the airport programs “REDUCE airport lines and ease the burden on DHS.”
Noem’s decision on FEMA funding will not affect operations at 44 active disaster sites, including those in a dozen Southern states that are recovering from a massive winter storm in late January. Nearly 2,800 disaster specialists were working across the country on Sunday, and another 4,400 were available to be deployed, according to a FEMA report.
But the funding restrictions could delay thousands of long-term disaster rebuilding projects. FEMA pays at least 75 percent of the cost of eligible projects. Many states and localities delay or halt work when FEMA stops its payments.
“States and communities will be forced to wait for long-term response work to continue,” Gregg Phillips, FEMA’s associate administrator for the Office of Response and Recovery, told a House Appropriations subcommittee on Feb. 11.
The FEMA disaster fund “has sufficient balances to continue emergency response activities for the foreseeable future,” Phillips said in written testimony submitted to panel. But if a disaster occurred, the fund “would be seriously strained.”
The funding restriction also threatens to further delay Trump’s decisions on granting 14 requests for disaster aid by governors and tribal leaders since Nov. 26.

Meet Nick Boyd, the smooth lefty whose having a career season for Wisconsin. The men’s college basketball season is ramping up with high-stakes games every night and the NCAA Tournament just around the corner. In those key regular-season games, March Madness stars introduce themselves to the nation with magical moments and Cinderella runs. We’re teaching you about them before they become national heroes. Ahead of No. 24 Wisconsin hosting Iowa on Sunday night (4 p.m. ET on FOX and the FOX Sports app), let us help you get to know Boyd. 1. Player Build Boyd is a 6-foot-3, left-handed guard with a quick trigger. He’s averaging 20.3 points per game, good for fourth in the Big Ten. 2. Journeyman Boyd, 24, has been in college since 2020. His career started at FAU, where he helped the Owls reach the Final Four as a freshman. He spent a total of four years at FAU but left with two more years of eligibility because he opted to redshirt during the 2021-22 season and the 2020-21 season didn’t count against his eligibility because of the COVID-19 pandemic. After graduating from FAU, Boyd played one season at San Diego State before transferring to Wisconsin. 3. Most Improved Player While there’s no most improved player award in college basketball, Boyd would have a great case. He went from averaging 13.4 points per game at SDSU last season to 20.3 ppg at Wisconsin. The increase in production is respectable given Boyd’s higher usage at a more competitive level in the Big Ten compared to the Mountain West. 4. Efficiency Uptick As impressive as his raw scoring numbers, Boyd’s also scoring at an efficient level. He’s shooting 47.6% on 14.5 attempts per game. He’s also shooting 81% on 5.8 free throw attempts per game. 5. Big Game Player Boyd has scored above his average in Wisconsin’s wins against top college basketball teams. He scored 29 in the Badgers’ 92-71 win against No. 15 Michigan State, 25 points in Wisconsin’s victory against No. 8 Illinois, and 22 points when the Badgers became the only team to beat No. 1 Michigan earlier this season.Latest Sports News from FOX Sports
Meet Jazzy Davidson, the standout point guard who leads USC in every major statistical category. The women’s college basketball season is ramping up with high-stakes games every night and the NCAA Tournament just around the corner. In those key regular-season games, March Madness stars introduce themselves to the nation with magical moments and Cinderella runs. We’re teaching you about them before they become national heroes. Ahead of USC facing No. 10 Ohio State on Sunday (2 p.m. ET on FOX and the FOX Sports app), let us help you get to know Davidson. 1. Player Build Davidson, a 6-foot-1 silky guard, plays with the fluidity of a professional. She creates driving angles with her tight dribble and glides through the lane with agile footwork. She’s reminiscent of her older teammate JuJu Watkins. 2. Chasing Greatness Davidson averages 17.2 points per game, putting her on track to set the record for most points scored by a Big Ten freshman. Michigan’s Olivia Olson set a new record last season (averaging 16.3 points per game), but it’s seemingly only going to stand for 365 days. 3. High School Heroics Davidson won the Gatorade Player of the Year award in the state of Oregon four times, each year of her high school career. She played at Clackama just outside of Portland and set the record for most points scored (2,726) at the 6A level, the top level in Oregon prep sports. 4. Defensive Stopper Not only does Davidson average 17.2 points, 4.4 assists and 6.3 rebounds per game, but she also grabs 1.9 steals and blocks 2.2 shots per game, the second most of any player in the Big Ten. Yes, you read that right. A 6-foot-1 guard averageing 2.2 blocks? That’s a direct result of athleticism and effort. 5. Friendly Rivals Davidson is close friends with UCLA center Sienna Betts. The two traveled to Europe with one another before the start of last season and frequently appear on one another’s social media pages.Latest Sports News from FOX Sports

We have tragic news to report from the world of sports.
Rondale Moore — an NFL wide receiver who most recently played for the Minnesota Vikings — has passed away.
He was just 25 years old.
News of Moore’s death comes courtesy of a statement from the NFL.
“The NFL is deeply saddened by the tragic passing of Rondale Moore,” said a spokesperson for the league, adding:
“Our thoughts are with Rondale’s family, friends and teammates during this difficult time.”
In their own statement, the Vikings announced that they “spoken with Rondale’s family to offer our condolences and the full support of the Minnesota Vikings.
“We have also been in communication with our players, coaches, and staff, and will make counseling and emotional support resources available to anyone in need,” the team continued.
“Our thoughts are with Rondale’s family and friends during this devastating time.”
“I am devastated by the news of Rondale’s death,” Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell said in a statement released by the team.
“While Rondale had been a member of the Vikings for a short time, he was someone we came to know well and care about deeply.
“He was a humble, soft-spoken, and respectful young man who was proud of his Indiana roots. As a player, he was disciplined, dedicated and resilient despite facing adversity multiple times as injuries sidelined him throughout his career,” O’Connell continued, adding:
“We are all heartbroken by the fact he won’t continue to live out his NFL dream and we won’t all have a chance to watch him flourish.”
“We all loved Rondale; we loved his smile and his competitive edge that always wanted to please everyone he came in contact with,” added University of Louisville head coach Jeff Brohm, who coached Moore during his time at Purdue.
Moore was reportedly found dead in a garage on his property.
His official cause of death will be announced following an investigation from Floyd County Coroner Matthew Tomlin, but police have revealed that he appears to have died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Our thoughts go out to Rondale Moore’s friends and family during this incredibly difficult time.
