Thank you for your responses.
Cogat7 verbal section in the 2nd grade is all pictorial - so do you think his lower score is really related to poor reading comprehension in any way if the test involved no reading? More like poor listening comprehension may be?
I agree his early reading was more visual-spatial in nature and always felt like a passion for pattern recognition. He didn't really like puzzles that much (he wasn't a stereotypical ASD child doing puzzles all day long), but absolutely loved video games and was exceptionally good at them. Also he learned to sight read music very quickly at the age of 6 and while he isn't super gifted in the piano area, he is definitely a good decoder when it comes to music notes.
He does have an IEP at school for speech and is evaluated regularly. The only concern mentioned on the semi-annual reports is speech fluency.
