Joe Gibbs Racing has partnered with both Stanley and DeWalt to sponsor Carl Edwards and Matt Kenseth next season.
Stanley will be the primary sponsor for 12 races on Edwards' new No. 19 Toyota at JGR.
The team had previously announced that telecommunications company Arris would sponsor 17 races, so JGR has just nine races remaining to fill for Edwards.

DeWalt spent 10 seasons as Kenseth's primary sponsor when he drove for Jack Roush. The company was on his car for his 2000 rookie season through 2009, winning 18 races — including one Daytona 500 — and the 2003 NASCAR championship.
