For football collectors, Prizm has long been one of the hobby’s most reliable staples. The 2025 edition will carry extra weight, though, as it marks Panini’s final year producing NFL-licensed cards before the exclusive rights move on. That makes this release not only one of the most anticipated of the season, but also a historic close to an era that defined modern football collecting.

Hobby boxes once again come with 12 packs, each loaded with parallels, inserts, rookies, and the hits Prizm is known for. Collectors can expect two autographs per box, keeping the chase for big rookies alive one more time.

The base set covers the full spectrum of the league with veterans, legends, and rookies. As always, the Prizm rainbow is a major draw, ranging from Silver Prizms to the coveted Golds, with rare White Knight parallels adding extra appeal. Rookie Autographs and Rookie Patch Autographs remain a cornerstone, giving fans the chance to land signed cards from the newest NFL stars.

Inserts balance the familiar with the tough-to-pull. Common runs include Emergent, Prizmatic, and Prizm Break, while harder finds include Prizmania and the ever-popular Color Blast, which appears in both single and dual versions. Manga cards also return as short-printed chases, available in vertical and horizontal formats.

For collectors breaking down the product, here’s what to expect:

Hobby Boxes

• 12 cards per pack, 12 packs per box, 12 boxes per case
• 2 autographs
• 5 inserts or insert parallels
• 14 Prizm parallels
• 24 rookies

No Huddle Boxes

• 8 cards per pack, 10 packs per box, 20 boxes per case
• 1 autograph
• 7 No Huddle inserts
• 10 No Huddle Prizm parallels
• 18 rookies

The official set size has not been announced, but the release date is scheduled for November 12, 2025, though dates can shift.

Because this is Panini’s last NFL-licensed Prizm release, demand is expected to be strong from both collectors and investors. Previous years’ Prizm boxes are still popular on the secondary market, including hobby, 1st Off the Line, No Huddle, mega, and blaster formats. This final chapter in Panini’s NFL run is likely to become one of the most talked-about football releases of the decade.
