PHOENIX — Nine-year-old Ohioan Dylan Cooperider, with a huge assist from Super Bowl-winning quarterback Trent Dilfer, turned in a day for the history books during Tuesday’s Super Bowl XLIX Media Day festivities. The grand prize winner in Panini America’s season-long Panini Super Bowl Kid Reporter contest, Cooperider made the Media Day rounds like a veteran newsman, asking the tough questions to the NFL superstars who will take the field Sunday in Super Bowl XLIX.
With Dilfer serving as a Hall of Fame wingman, Cooperider made the most of his once-in-a-lifetime opportunity by interviewing the likes of Tom Brady, Russell Wilson, Kam Chancellor, Bobby Wagner, Rob Gronkowski, Julian Edelman and many more — and by also presenting every player he interviewed with a commemorative Panini America Super Bowl XLIX trading card.
