"We are excited to welcome Adam and Steve to the TNT Sports family, joining Dale in the booth to give racing fans a thoughtful, entertaining, and engaging experience," said Craig Barry, Executive Vice President and Chief Content Officer at TNT Sports.
"Their passion and knowledge for the sport, delivered in a more conversational format, will create a compelling narrative for each race and enhance the coverage for viewers as NASCAR returns to our platforms next year."
Alexander will make the move after multiple seasons at Fox Sports in which he led the Xfinity Series booth and worked with a rotating lineup of analysts. Alexander also shared the Craftsman Truck Series booth with Jamie Little last season.
This move to TNT Sports will be a reunion for the veteran sportscaster considering that Alexander was a play-by-play commentator for NASCAR on TNT from 2010-2014.

The Prime Video stretch begins with the Coca-Cola 600 crown jewel race. It continues with Nashville, Michigan, Mexico City, and Pocono.
TNT Sports' stretch of the season then starts with Atlanta and continues with Chicago, Sonoma, Dover, and the Brickyard 400 crown jewel race at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
"It's so nostalgic to see TNT Sports return to NASCAR," Earnhardt said. "I enjoyed watching their coverage back in the day. I'm looking forward to being a part of the team and working with Adam (Alexander) and (Steve) Letarte."
