Cincinnati Bengals rookie running back Rex Burkhead dropped by Panini America headquarters yesterday to sign some autographs, to open some 2013 Elite Football and, as a nice byproduct, to make Scott Prusha’s year. Prusha happens to be an unabashed fan of the Nebraska Cornhuskers; Burkhead, of course, is one of the greatest running backs in Huskers history.

So after the Bengals’ sixth-round pick finished signing his allotment of Panini America autographs for upcoming NFL products, he sat down with Prusha for an impromptu episode of Panini Unwrapped during which he talked football, his new teammates, the Huskers, collecting and so much more.

Enjoy the video — which Prusha still hasn’t stopped talking about — and stay tuned to The Knight’s Lance for a follow-up episode that goes deeper into the nuts and bolts of a truly spectacular 2013 Elite Football product.
