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
Chris Gollon@chris_gollonOct 23
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

From a social media post the track made: “Since taking over the reigns in 2020, we have tried everything in our power to keep soldiering on, but each season has been increasingly difficult.”

Full plans for Jordan Anderson Racing in 2027: Brennan Poole will be teammates with Daniel Dye and they'll be the team's two full-time drivers. The No. 27 that Jeb Burton is currently driving (Jeb is moving to RSS Racing) will transition to the team's All-Star/development car a la what the 32 currently is.
