1994 Fleer Ultra Football is split into two uneven releases. Series 1 has a 325-card base checklist, while Series 2 features just 200 cards. Inserts were different in each with Hot Numbers, Wave of the Future and Scoring Powers appearing in Series 2.

While there is a good crop of rookies in 1994, most of them appear in Series 1. Some, like Marshall Faulk, are still labeled as “Rookie” on the front of their Series 2 base cards. Trent Dilfer and Charlie Garner are among those held for the second set.
