‘12-year-old’ football player with mustache ?

DanMetroMan : 12/14/2022 1:38 pm
Jeremiah Johnson, a 12-year-old running back from Fort Worth, Texas, has the internet dumbfounded over his size and maturity.

The athlete became a viral sensation after a photo of him sporting what appeared to be facial hair and a tattoo surfaced on social media following the 2022 Youth National Championships over the weekend in Miami, where he was crowned MVP.

Johnson, whose Dallas Dragons Elite Academy (DEA) team won the championship game, can be seen holding the trophy that read: “12U Division 1 Most Valuable Player.”

Don’t know why everyone is so shocked by this. I think everyone went to school with someone in middle school that looked like they could be 30 years old. Lol. Eventually everyone else catches up.

I definitely didn’t go to middle school with any grown men who had a mother f’n viper tat. There was one dude who had chest hair, but I think that was a hormone thing.
I was almost 6 feet tall and had a mustache in the 5th grade

No biggie.

Growing up on Staten Island most of the boys had mustaches by that age.

And half of the girls... : )

I think there are some little league teams in the Bronx that could use him.

a woman claiming to be his mother #1 claims he's 12 and #2 the tattoo is fake
I didn't think 12 year olds were allowed to get tattoed  
steve in ky : 12/14/2022 1:56 pm : link
I guess maybe with parental consent it could be

She made the claims on facebook and unclear if anybody has verified any of this.

who was on our 12 yr old pop warner team who really looked 20...we grow up together since 1st grade..his whole family looked old and very ugly but will kick your ass if you picked on them....but at the same time as a PW coach we played a Boys Club team that had 16 yr olds against us at 11-12 ...one pull up in a car and boom box with a goat tee and doo rag...no joke we beat the 20-14 ....they had one play sweep left/right and poor coaches. I didn't protest because I could bragg on that feat.

Maybe he got the tattoo in prison where you don't need permission. Did you ever think of that you judgmental bastard?

I played Pop Warner  
Biteymax22 : 12/14/2022 2:48 pm : link
against a team that was thrown out of the league the year after when it was found that about half their team had forged birth certificates.

Not saying this is the case here, just saying it goes on more than people think.

Well it is Texas. He could have been tried as an adult when he was 7 and already finished his time.
The mustache is just the cherry on top.

Kid looks like he's seen some shit.

He looks like Roach from Apocalyse Now.
The picture in Dan's post certainly looks older than 12 to me.  
Mad Mike : 12/14/2022 3:13 pm : link
But here's another that looks like he could be that young.

I wouldn't guess 12, but I could buy it from that pic.
maybe it's Brandon Jacobs part 2?

His mom fed him regular food as a baby, no baby food.

True story.
Yea, I think everyone that ever played pop warner  
widmerseyebrow : 12/14/2022 4:21 pm : link
Has seen this. Ours was of course the running back and it was my job to hand him the ball and watch him run everyone over.
There was a kid I grew up with,  
Section331 : 12/14/2022 4:49 pm : link
a friend of my younger brother, who had facial hair in 8th grade (he was also 6’ and >170 lbs). His parents had to bring his birth certificate to travel games because opposing coaches would always challenge it. It happens.
In the summer leading up to my 12th birthday  
lawguy9801 : 12/14/2022 5:24 pm : link
I grew from 5'6" to 6'2".

Puberty and growth happen at different paces for everyone.

True. A couple guys I played with had full beard in 8th grade
They were the best players then
But the time they were seniors, everyone outgrew them.
