Drew Adams is slated to return to Supercross this weekend at Round 13 in Nashville, a homecoming for the Tennessee native after missing four races with a thumb injury suffered at Daytona. Adams won his heat at Daytona before crashing in the main, which produced a DNF and the thumb injury that sidelined him.

Adams will race for Monster Energy/Pro Circuit Kawasaki and enters the weekend with limited mileage this season, having started only two 250SX mains with finishes of sixth and 22nd, his season-best sixth coming at Arlington, leaving him 21st in 250SX East points.

The team confirmed in a Thursday-night press release that Adams will line up alongside regular rider Seth Hammaker and fill-in Nick Romano for Nashville. Team manager Iain Southwell praised Hammaker’s consistency, said Romano is making solid progress, and said the team hopes the hometown crowd will help Adams regain race fitness and confidence, framing Nashville as a comeback opportunity and a chance to regain championship momentum rather than a long-term reversal of the standings.
