Jeremie Dominique (born July 9, 1997) is a Canadian professional football defensive back for the Edmonton Elks of the Canadian Football League (CFL).

College career

[edit]

Dominique first played college football for the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors in 2017, where he played in seven games as a backup defensive back and had four tackles.[1] In 2018, he had a severe ankle injury, but played in six games, sparingly, despite the injury.[2] After undergoing foot surgery, he transferred to the University of North Dakota in order to be closer to his family home in Montreal.[2] However, he did not play for the North Dakota Fighting Hawks as his ankle healed in 2019.[2] Instead, Dominique entered the transfer portal in early 2020 with the intention of playing for an FBS program.[2] Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic caused many programs to cancel their seasons and he received no substantial offers.[2]

With the lack of NCAA Division I opportunities, Dominique transferred to the University of Charleston to play for Golden Eagles for their 2020–21 spring season, where he played in three games.[2][3] In the 2021 season, he played in ten games where he had 40 total tackles, two sacks, and three pass deflections.[3]

Professional career

[edit]

Dominique was drafted in the second round, 19th overall, by the Edmonton Elks in the 2022 CFL Draft and signed with the team on May 11, 2022.[4] Following training camp in 2022, he made the team's active roster and made his professional debut on June 11, 2022, against the BC Lions.[5] He played in 15 regular season games in his rookie year where he recorded three defensive tackles, six special teams tackles, two forced fumbles, and one fumble recovery.[6]

In 2023, Dominique played in 14 regular season games where he had seven special teams tackles.[7][8] He was released shortly after the completion of the 2024 CFL draft on May 1, 2024.[9] However, following several injuries to special teams players, the Elks re-signed Dominique on August 13, 2024.[10]
