Tua Tagovailoa's Unrecognizable New Appearance Baffles The Internet, Draws Hilarious Reactions

Tua Tagovailoa has a new look, and it's throwing people for a loop.

Giselle Espinales tweeted a video Thursday night of the Dolphins star QB doing a meet and greet with fans, and anyone who says it looks like Tua is simply lying.

His facial hair is gone, he looks like he's a decade younger and he's rocking hair people definitely aren't used to seeing.

Upon first glance, I honestly thought I was being tricked. Take a look below, and judge for yourself.

Tua Tagovailoa's new appearance surprises the internet.

Well, turns out I wasn't the only person perplexed by the NFL gunslinger's look. Plenty of other football fans had confused reactions.

Check out some of the best responses below, and hit me with your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

For comparison, below is a photo of Tua where he looks like what fans are used to. Give it a solid glance, and then tell me with a straight face the video and photo are similar.

I don't care what anyone says, nobody can convince me he looks like he used to. It's probably in large part due to his facial hair being gone. As all guys know, shaving your facial hair is a guaranteed way to look a decade younger.

Tua looks like he's 15 in the video going viral. He's actually 26, but you'd never know it from what Espinales posted.

What a fun moment for the internet to unite around. Let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
