Caleb Banks, considered one of the top two defensive tackles in the 2026 NFL Draft class, reportedly suffered a broken foot at the NFL Scouting Combine.

Dane Brugler of The Athletic reported that downs suffered the injury the night before on-field testing in Indianapolis. Banks ran the 40-yard dash and did the vertical jump, but declined to do the remainder of the drills saying his shoe was bothering him.

Obviously, it wasn't the shoe.

Per Brugler, Banks had a fracture of the fourth metatarsal surgically repaired by Dr. Norman Waldrop on March 9. He is expected to be sidelined until June.

Banks, who might be considered a target for the defensive line-needy New York Giants at No. 37, also dealt with a foot injury that cost him most of the 2025 season. He played in only three games.

Will the injury take the 6-foot-6, 327-pound Banks out of consideration for the Giants at 37?
