Fails (1) WP:NGRIDIRON (never appeared in a regular season game in the NFL, CFL, or other qualifying league -- NFL Europe and UFL are not qualifying leagues), (2) WP:NCOLLATH (no major awards and principally a backup [started one of 17 games at Washington State -- see here]), and (3) WP:GNG (my searches in both Google and Newspapers.com fail to turn up WP:SIGCOV of the type required).

• Keep Finding a decent amount in the archives, such as [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. Seems to meet GNG. ~EDDY ^{(talk/contribs)}~ 01:37, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

Respectfully disagree. Not one of these articles is focused on Dada as the primary topic. Given the lack of significant accomplishment at Washington State (1 career start) and zero appearances in a qualifying professional league, I would want to see SIGCOV focused more directly on Dada to support maintenance of a stand-alone article.

• Delete per nom and a lack of significant coverage in reliable sources. ––FORMALDUDE^(talk) 02:38, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
• Delete I found nothing that I would consider significant independent coverage. In addition, he fails to meet WP:NGRIDIRON or WP:NCOLLATH. Papaursa (talk) 23:43, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
