Green will drive the No. 87 for Peterson Racing Group in the team’s first move to a full-time O’Reilly schedule.

According to Green’s post announcing the campaign, the team will have a technical alliance with Richard Childress Racing.
Green has competed part time in the series since 2024 for PRG, often in a partnership with Jordan Anderson Racing.
Over 21 starts, he has two top fives and eight top 10s, highlighted by a runner-up finish at the Charlotte Motor Speedway ROVAL in 2025.
Green is the son of past O’Reilly champion David Green.
