IMG_6615by: Blake Alderman03/02/26Blake_Alderman

After having nine Florida Gators attend last year’s NFL Scouting Combine, nine more UF players competed in Indianapolis last week. A total of 319 prospects were invited to this year’s event, which was held from February 26 through March 1.

The Gators who took part in the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine were defensive lineman Caleb Banks, offensive tackle Austin Barber, edge rusher George Gumbs, cornerback Devin Moore, defensive lineman Tyreak Sapp, offensive lineman Jake Slaughter, wide receiver J.Michael Sturdivant, kicker Trey Smack, and punter Tommy Doman.

Kickers, defensive linemen, and linebackers started the NFL Combine last Thursday, followed by defensive backs and tight ends on Friday. Quarterbacks, wide receivers, and running backs hit the field on Saturday, and offensive linemen on Sunday. Here are the results for Florida’s players.

Defensive lineman Caleb Banks

Prospect grade: 6.39
40-yard dash: 5.04 seconds

Arm: 35’’
Hand: 10 7/8’’

Florida Gators defensive lineman Caleb Banks’s frame had the attention of scouts and media at the 2026 NFL Combine. He’s been included in several NFL Mock Drafts as a first-round draft pick.

Quotable: “Banks didn’t need to finish the on-field workouts to rank as one of Thursday’s winners. The 6-foot-6, 327-pound defensive tackle wowed with a 32-inch vertical jump and a 5.05-second 40. Banks missed most of last season because of a foot injury, but his upside is through the roof. He could have moved into the first round with his times Thursday.” – ESPN’s Matt Miller said of Caleb Banks
