Defensive linemen measurements from players at the 2026 NFL combine

[ASFN Admin]

Every year at the NFL Combine, the measurables tell a story before the drills ever begin. Height, weight, arm length, and hand size don’t determine who wins in the trenches, but they help clarify role projection. For interior defensive linemen, anchor ability and reach are critical traits.

Below are the official measurements for the defensive tackles.

Player	Height	Weight	Hand	Arm
Peter Woods	6’ 2 1/2’’	298 lbs	9 1/8’’	31 1/4’’
Kayden McDonald	6’ 2’’	326 lbs	9 3/4’’	32 1/4’’
Caleb Banks	6’ 6’’	327 lbs	10 7/8’’	35’’
Christen Miller	6’ 4’’	321 lbs	10’’	33’’
Lee Hunter	6’ 3 1/2’’	318 lbs	9 1/4’’	33 1/4’’
Dontay Corleone	6’ 0 1/2’’	340 lbs	9 1/2’’	31 7/8’’
Domonique Orange	6’ 2’’	322 lbs	10 1/4’’	33 3/8’’
Darrell Jackson Jr.	6’ 5 1/2’’	315 lbs	11’’	34 3/4’’
Skylar Gil-Howard	6’ 1’’	280 lbs	9 1/4’’	30 3/4’’

Among the defensive tackles, Dontay Corleone was the heaviest at 340 pounds, giving him the densest frame in the group, while Skylar Gil-Howard was the lightest at 280 pounds.

Height-wise, Caleb Banks stood tallest at 6-foot-6, with Dontay Corleone measuring the shortest at 6-foot-0 1/2. Banks also led the group in arm length at an impressive 35 inches, while Skylar Gil-Howard recorded the shortest arms at 30 3/4 inches. The variation in size across this class shows the clear separation between traditional nose tackles and longer, more versatile interior defenders.
