2017 Panini Contenders Patrick Mahomes II ROOKIE AUTO #303 PSA 8 NM-MT

As that year’s 10th overall draft pick, Patrick Mahomes received plenty of attention from Panini, which printed his many notable rookie cards throughout 2017. That wave of fanfare includes Mahomes’ short-printed 2017 Panini Contenders RPS Rookie Ticket Auto #303. Mahomes signed 212 of these cards at the Rookie Premiere, leaving his offering as one of nine short-printed cards in the 40-card series of RPS Rookie Ticket Autos. In the years since its release, Mahomes’ Rookie Ticket Auto has taken its place amongst the notable quarterback RCs to appear in the set. From Manning in 1998 and Brady in 2000 to Brees in ’01 and Rodgers in ’05, there’s been a handful of quarterbacks who have set the standard for Rookie Ticket Autos. Mahomes helped usher in a revitalization of the trend with his appearance in 2017. Panini dubbed Mahomes the “heir” to the starting job and expected he would “shine” in the future. The glint emanating from his three Super Bowls trophies and two MVP awards would seem to back that claim, as would the lustrous appeal of this coveted rookie auto.
