what type of lizard is this?

There is a lizard in my garage in naples, florida that is about 6 inches long and has red by its cheeks and underneath its head. Other than that the lizard is brown with a few subtle streaks down its back. Its head is about the same width as the rest of its body. Does anyone know what kind of lizard this could be? i have never seen anything like it before.

    Sounds like a skink. There are several species in Florida.
