Is this a 12 year old youth football player-mustache and tattoo included?

It could happen - although the receding hairline and tattoos make me pause. When I was twelve, everyone thought I was older - I was tall for my age, well developed, and mature. When I went on the bus, tickets were free up to age 12. The bus driver did not believe I was twelve and insisted I purchase a ticket. I was in tears. Go figure.
 
I seriously doubt it, but strange things happen..... When I was 12, the boys of that age couldn't have rounded up a scrappy little mustache if they had ALL contributed to it. Not to mention that the girls couldn't have filled an A-cup collectively. Our Playtex Living Training Bras were all starving to death......

When my granddaughter was in middle school, there were girls who looked like Playboy bunnies and boys will full facial hair. I couldn't believe it.
 
The tats are fake, but otherwise he may be the real deal. Or not. A very few young folks just mature early and then a very very few of them go on to be exceptional athletes. Lebron James, Hershel Walker, Tiger Woods come to mind. So I can't just lightly dismiss him.

When my son was in High School, we saw Keith Byers, as a senior, at the State track meet. He was a man among boys. It was awesome to watch. Byers went on to play for the Buckeyes and a number of years as a pro.

Edited to add: Shaquille O'Neal was 6'4" as a 10 year old!
