So I was driving down the road at about 60 when the rpm's dropped and the check engine light flickered and the car just shut off. .... I coasted to the shoulder and attempted to restart it. It won't crank and when the key is turned to on position the check engine light doesn't come on with the rest of them. I know the battery, starter, fuses and alternator are all good. I also thought it may have been the main relay so I replaced it but nada. Any idea what would cause the issue I'm having? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you're seeing voltage drops that bad between the negative post and the case of the starter then it's very likely that there's a bad ground between the battery and starter, run a jumper cable from the negative post to the starter case ear/bolt and see if it'll crank.
