S2 Cognition Test Cofounder Addresses Leaked QB Scores

One of the most popular topics of draft season this year has been the emergence of the S2 Cognition Test, a relatively new exam that prospects take to measure decision-making.

Last week, longtime NFL reporter Bob McGinn published what he believed to be scores for this year’s quarterback class. According to the report, of the consensus top five quarterbacks, Bryce Young scored a 98, Will Levis got a 96, Anthony Richardson received a 79, Hendon Hooker scored a 46 and CJ Stroud totaled an 18.

On Monday, Brandon Ally, a cofounder of the S2 Cognition Test, addressed those leaked scores and claims that the results lack context and aren’t totally correct.

“What I will say is the list of scores that I have seen, two of those scores are not accurate, they’re not accurate at all,” he said on The Pat McAfee Show. “Some of the reasoning could be for narrative purposes, the other reasons are they don’t have context.”

According to Ally, one prospect took the test late at night following a busy day of delayed meetings. When the exam was readministered at that prospect’s pro day, the player scored much higher than the first time. Ally did not give names as to whose scores were inaccurate.

As it appears teams are putting a lot of weight into this test, Ally’s admission could be key in stopping certain narratives about some prospects from forming. Now that the Wonderlic Test seems to be going out of style, teams may be looking for something to replace it, thus the constant rumors regarding the S2.
