Footlong sandwiches have nothing to do with the body part “foot”.
They hardly have anything to do with the measurement “foot” since they are like 10.5 inches (~26cm) now or something (as opposed to the 30ish centimeters that make a foot).
I’m like 60% sure during the height of subway in mid-2000s-early 2010s the subway commercials actually did advertise the foot long as being 12 inch sub’s for 5$ (goddamn the 5$ foot long ads were catchy). However unlike real measurements that have defined standards, as subway enshitified they weren’t forced to change naming as they slowly shrank the sandwiches. Of course this is long enough ago that an entire generation doesnt know who Jared was so its okay to assume it was never a real foot long.

This is part of the enshittificaton of Subway.
Their cookies are still dope tho.
