Top NFL Stars, Future Stars Deliver Highlights Aplenty at 2020 Panini Skills Clinic
MIAMI — Just two days before Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs knocked off the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV, Panini America officials treated more than 150 Miami-area youngsters to the star-studded 13th Annual Panini Skills Clinic in the Super Bowl host city. It was a Friday night filled with stars and forever memories thanks to special guests DK Metcalf, Aaron Jones, Teddy Bridgewater, Josh Jacobs, Tua Tagovailoa, Jerry Jeudy, Antonio Gandy-Golden and Pro Football Hall of Famer Will Shields.
They coached. They inspired. They engaged. And they made a lasting impact. That much was obvious based on nothing more than watching the youngsters’ faces as they were put through a series of football drill stations while current and future NFL stars provided real-world instruction and insight.
But no matter how insightful their on-field teachings were, to a man, the NFL stars in attendance — who worked up just as much sweat as the kids they were coaching — stressed the importance of education, passion, having fun and working hard. Those points certainly weren’t lost on the young athletes spread out on the Miami Central High School practice field.
