With the introduction into the NFL most all players get their very own set of rookie cards to send out into the general public. Some of the more valuable versions of these cards have the players themselves sign them and can have pieces of jersey attached to them. Rookie cards have always been the more valuable version of a NFL players’ card portfolio, and when it comes to one of the best players we have ever seen in Patrick Mahomes, it means ridiculous value.

One lucky seller cashed in on his signed Patrick Mahomes rookie card to the tune of $173,240, one of the most expensive modern sports card prices we have ever seen. It goes to show when you open that pack of cards it really could be like playing the lottery on any given player. Who could be the next rookie to hit it big and have their rookie card sell through the roof?
