Panini Phoenix Thunderbirds Sam Darnold (SeaHawks variation) Football Trading Card

This is a modern collectible sports card from the Panini Phoenix football series, featuring quarterback Sam Darnold. The 'Thunderbirds' insert set features a distinctive graphic design characterized by a vibrant purple, blue, and teal color palette with holographic or 'refractor' light-catching properties. The artwork includes stylized wings and lightning bolt motifs flanking the player. Darnold is depicted in a Seattle Seahawks uniform, which is a notable error or custom variation as he has historically played for other franchises, making this a specific point of interest for collectors of 'mistake' cards or custom creations. The card is printed on thick, high-gloss premium cardstock with a chrome-like finish. The centering appears slightly heavy toward the bottom edge, but the corners and edges visible in the image remain relatively sharp and free of major whitening or chipping. The card is presented on a black display stand against a green textured surface. Its quality is representative of modern high-end manufacturing, designed for secondary market trading and grading.
