Back in February, former Michigan State Football QB Brian Lewerke attended the NFL scouting combine where he, along with other quarterbacks and offensive line in attendance, took the Wonderlic Contemporary test. While those scores are supposed to be kept private, many have been released by Bob McGinn of The Athletic. In his NFL Draft preview post ranking the quarterbacks in the draft, McGinn revealed that Lewerke scored a 25 on the test.
The Wonderlic test is used at the NFL Draft combine to test the cognitive abilities of quarterbacks and offensive lineman in three areas: vocabulary, reasoning, and math.
The average score of a football player is supposedly 20, while the average score of a quarterback is 24, so that would put Lewerke just above average.
Nate Stanley of Iowa led all QBs with a score of 40, Jake Fromm of Georgia had 35, and Joe Burrow was at 34. Tua Tagovailoa of Alabama might have hurt his lofty draft expectations with a score of 13.
