Marking the end of an era and the start of a new one, 2026 Donruss Football keeps the Panini brand moving forward following the loss of the NFL license to Fanatics/Topps.
What remains is fundamentally similar to past releases, but all pro cards are unlicensed, and collegiate cards take on a much greater role.
Hobby boxes again contain one autograph and one relic.
