Jump to the 2026 Leaf Paydirt Football checklist

2026 Leaf Paydirt Football is a new brand that combines the star power of today’s best with yesterday’s legends and tomorrow’s prospects.

Collectors can expect to find four autographs per hobby box, while jumbo boxes house 11 autographs plus an exclusive NIL Autograph numbered to /4 or fewer.

2026 Leaf Paydirt Football Checklist Overview

The product starts out with a 244-card base set. Each card has 10 different versions numbered from /99 down to 1/1.

  • Orange /99
  • Pink /75
  • Platinum /45
  • Green /25
  • Blue /10
  • Purple /5
  • White /3
  • Red /2
  • Silver /1
  • Gold /1

Most of the names from the base set also have autographed versions.

Additional autographs can be found in sets like:

  • All-Time All-Americans
  • Legends Autographs
  • Level Up! Autographs

Rival Autographs are a product of a recently struck agreement between Leaf and Rivals.com, which utilizes Rivals’ data — notably its star ratings — on Leaf cards.

Collectors can find chromium illustrations in Comichrome Autographs, which feature 36 players in a comic style.

Blitz Glitz features 50 players, and no card is numbered to more than /20, while A Legendary Journey Autographs includes 10 cards of five different players. Each card is a 1/1 that chronicles part of a player’s career.

In the jumbo-exclusive NIL Bonus Autographs, there are 244 players — mostly amateur football prospects — included on the checklist. Each card has Blue (/4), Red (/3), Purple (/2), Silver (/1), and Gold (/1) versions.

There is also a 25-card set of 1/1 dual-signed Rare Pair Autographs.

Many of the autograph concepts also have unsigned versions. Sets include:

  • A Legendary Journey
  • All-Time All-Americans
  • Comichrome
  • Legends
  • Level Up!
  • Rivals
