So what do these results tell us? It appears that a higher score resulted in a longer NFL career by 1.4 years. However, in the worst category three players contributed the most to the NFL playing career average, so it appears that a high Wonderlic most certainly helps, but a low Wonderlic may not destroy your chances of playing in the NFL. Physical ability of course plays into this very much, but being smart and physically gifted doesn’t hurt.
