Ok...so we know Florida and South Florida in particular is KNOWN for producing some incredible football talent.
I could rattle off 10 or more Super Bowl Champions and NFL Probowlers right now who claim the "305" or the "954" or "561" and a lot of that talent starts showing signs of greatness very early on...
In fact, the young man below is just 12yo and earned MVP honors of his 12U Championship here in Miami over the weekend...
No you didn't MISREAD that...Jeremiah Johnson is 12 years old and this information has left a lot of people scratching their heads.
Folks just can't seem to wrap their brains around a 12 year old with a full mustache and a half-sleeve prison tattoo....
But seriously...this photo, which was originally posted by my friends at Generation Nexxt, which is network dedicated to covering youth sports and Youth Football in particular, has gone hella viral and the COMMENTS have me ROLLLLLLLLING!!!
Check out the comments under this repost by @Pubity...D.E.A.D.!!!!
But it's not just us common folks weighing in on young Jeremiah...even some of our homegrown NFL talent has voiced their opinions on the matter!
And just to prove that Jeremiah isn't alone...check out this 14 year old who was also in Miami playing in the Youth Football Championships over the weekend....
He plays for the LA Rampage 14U Team and was named their MVP as well:
Ahhhh...can't make this up and just to PROVE we grow 'em like this here in SoFLo too...check out a picture from my Generation Nexxt days!
This is a 14yo wide receiver who at the time played for the PPO Bengals....
So basically this ain't nothing new...
Congratulations too all the young athletes who earned their strips on the gridiron this year!!! Wishing you all the Best of luck in the future!
But I do wanna know...
Parents, after seeing these pics...are you prepared to let YOUR kids suit up next season?!
