The Elliott Sadler Saga took another strange twist.

Sadler will be returning to Gillett Evernham Motorsports for the 2009 season. The news comes only days after Sadler threatened to sue GEM after rumors began circulating that he may be replaced by AJ Allmendinger.

"We are a family," said Tom Reddin, GEM CEO, in a release. "Sometimes in a family you have differences. We have resolved all differences. We are moving on and excited about heading to Daytona."
