Get Through the Offseason with 2024 Panini Clearly Donruss NFL

Written by: Connor Zimmerlee

While we’re still months away from the start of football season, the hype is already building. We’ve enjoyed the draft, rookie minicamps are ongoing, and it won’t be long before OTAs begin.

The rest of the wait won’t be empty. The schedule for the 2025 season has officially been released, and it features a plethora of must-watch games. You can also look out for the upcoming release of 2024 Panini Clearly Donruss NFL, which boasts the classic blend of acetate cardstock with the flagship Donruss brand.

Combine the two, and you have a match made in heaven for both football fanatics and collectors everywhere. To make it even easier, we’ll break down a couple of next season’s most anticipated matchups while offering a glimpse into Panini’s newest release.

Starting in Week 2, we have a Super Bowl LIX rematch between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs. There are several Clearly Donruss inserts that feature the stars of this tilt, including Patrick Mahomes and Saquon Barkley. They, along with teammates and rivals alike, can be found across sets such as Base, Rated Rookies, Clearly Rated Rookie Autographs and the wonderfully designed Gridiron Marvels.

Fast-forward to Week 17, and you have what should be a pivotal late-season NFC North showdown featuring the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings. The clash features players found across various Clearly Donruss sets such as Jared Goff, Justin Jefferson and Jahmyr Gibbs, while bringing back memories of the club’s former legends that can also be found in the release (such as Barry Sanders).

No, these aren’t the only players and sets you can find within this release. Also look out for some of last season’s most exciting rookies like Keon Coleman, Cooper DeJean and Michael Penix Jr. And there’s far more entertaining matchups than those two mentioned. But, with a long way to go before the season officially kicks off, a little bit of added suspense never hurt anyone.

Each hobby box of 2024 Panini Clearly Donruss NFL features eight Rated Rookies, two parallels and one autograph card, on average.
