2021 Absolute Football returns with favorites but also brings a slew of new cards and themes to chase.
The base set this year - called Spectrum - is a 200-card set of the best rookies, legends and stars of the NFL - with 100 Base and 100 Rookies. Both are expected to have the following parallels Red /100, Orange /75, Blue /50, Green /25, Gold /10, Green /5, Black /1, and Printing Plates /1.
Returning this year are the Rookie Premiere Materials Autos, with each hobby box guaranteeing one. They feature a signature and swatches from different types of game memorabilia, and will have serial numbered parallels including 1/1 Tag and NFL Shield versions.
New this year to chase are the By Storm rookie inserts, highlighting “players that are poised to take over the league,” according to Panini. Parallels are expected to be Red /100, Orange /75, Blue /50, Green /25, Purple /5 and Black /1. Expect the same set of parallels for the other insert set Red Zone.
Another new addition in 2021 Absolute Football are the iconic dual autographs with the subset Historical Duals, pairing great teammates. Look for three parallels on this checklist (Gold max /10, Holo Silver max /5 and 1/1 Platinum).
Open your case to find both a Kaboom! insert and an Explosive insert, each popular short-prints this year. A /10 Gold and 1/1 Green parallel version can be found for each.
The expected release date for 2021 Panini Absolute Football is 22 September 2021, and we’ll update this article as more information becomes available.
