CAREER

Dabire has been a developing defensive presence for the Saskatchewan Roughriders since being selected in the fifth round of the 2019 CFL Draft. He made his CFL debut that season and gradually increased his role over the following years, recording consistent contributions along the defensive line from 2019–2022.

Dabire took a step forward in 2023, setting career highs with 13 defensive tackles and adding two sacks in 18 games. He showed strong early form in 2024 with two sacks and a forced fumble in limited action before a season-ending knee injury. After re-signing with the club, he missed the 2025 season due to injury but remained part of Saskatchewan’s Grey Cup championship team.
