Arizona DB Genesis Smith Played Through Fractured Foot, Meets NFL Teams

Former Arizona defensive back Genesis Smith revealed at the NFL Combine that he fractured his foot against Oklahoma State in 2025 but played through the rest of the season. Despite the injury, which impacted his missed tackle count and PFF grades for a period, he was the Wildcats' fourth-leading tackler with 77. Smith, who met formally with the Panthers, Raiders, Texans, Chiefs, and Buccaneers, plans to showcase his explosion, fluidity, back pedal, and ball skills in drills, though he will skip the 40-yard dash.
