Alabama’s McElroy scores 48 on Wonderlic test

McElroy, a Rhodes Scholarship finalist, scored a 48 out of 50 on the Wonderlic Test, which assesses problem-solving and learning capabilities. Athletes have 12 minutes to complete the exam. To put that into perspective, the average score for a quarterback ranges around 21-24.

Wonderlic scores aren’t necessarily indicative of a quarterback’s success in the NFL. Dan Marino scored a 16 and Michael Vick scored a 20.

Patrick McInally, who played for the Cincinnati Bengals, is the only player to ever receive a perfect 50.
