After a difficult chapter in their lives with the loss of their first child through a miscarriage in 2020, Briscoe and his wife were graced with the joy of their son, Brooks, a year later. Their happiness tripled recently as they welcomed twins, Cooper Banks and Collins Ivy, born on October 8, 2024, expanding their family and filling their home with even more love.

Life at the Briscoe household has turned a hectic page since the arrival of twin joys. Reflecting on his balancing act between the racetrack and home, the new #19 JGR driver described the hustle as pure chaos, noting: “I’m going back and forth. So, I mean, it’s chaotic, but without that support system and without that family support, it would be way harder.”
With the added responsibility of two new family members, the former #14 driver acknowledged a shift in his outlook. “I think your perspective just changes,” he mused, recognizing the heightened motivation that comes with providing for his growing family.
While the pressure of competition was undeniable, he shared that having two more kids has added motivation knowing that he has two more mouths to feed. Yet, he knew his value wasn’t tied to his finish-line position or his playoff progression.
As Briscoe savors the off-season, basking in precious moments with his family, he is poised for a strong return in 2025. Taking over the reins of the car once driven by Martin Truex Jr., he knows the expectations will be high to make a stronger comeback.
