[Harvey] First slip by Young happened before test - San Antonio News-Express
...Did Young really get a 6?
League execs could think of only one starting quarterback in history with a single-digit Wonderlic score (Vince Evans in the 1970s). Recently drafted quarterbacks include Michael Vick (20), David Carr (24) and Eli Manning (39). Matt Leinart had a 35 this year, and Marino somehow made do with a 15.
So Young's number was as crazy as his Rose Bowl numbers, and there were varying explanations. A prevalent one is that Young's test was incorrectly graded, and he retook the test. He scored a 16 then, which is passable.
But a source says the 6 really happened and that Young never took the test a second time. The league was so embarrassed by this leak that it invented a story...
