Winless Hunter-Reay has options outside Andretti for 2022

Associated Press  

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Ryan Hunter-Reay had to leave his favorite Miami Dolphins jersey behind and try on a new one from the Tennessee Titans once his buddy Ryan Tannehill was traded. Tannehill was the 2019 AP NFL Comeback Player of the Year in his first season with the Titans, and Hunter-Reay might have to stage a rebound of his own with a new team in 2022 if he can’t turn around a winless season in the final year of his deal with Andretti Autosport. But the 2012 IndyCar champ and 2014 Indianapolis 500 winner insisted he’s not done racing and has options for his future that don’t necessarily include a 13th season driving for Michael Andretti. Hunter-Reay has struggled from the opening lap of the season, when he was collected in a first-lap crash and IndyCar’s cockpit-protecting aeroscreen likely saved his life when it deflected a tire away from his head. If Andretti is out of the picture — former Formula One driver Romain Grosjean could nab a seat there — Hunter-Reay could find a home in the second car for Meyer Shank Racing.
