# Card Notes Donruss made a triumphant return to football in 2017 after a long absence, reclaiming one of the hobby's most iconic brand names. The 2017 Donruss set captured collectors' imaginations with bold, classic design and a focus on football heritage. Press Proof parallels became instant chase cards, offering vibrant colored borders that elevated the base designs and created collectible tiers within the set itself. Troy Aikman remains one of football's most beloved figures and a perennial favorite among collectors. His appearance in Donruss carries particular weight given the brand's storied history in the sport. Aikman cards from this era appeal to both Dallas Cowboys loyalists and those drawn to premium parallel versions that showcase dynamic imagery and the sharp aesthetics that made this set's return so memorable.
