Efe Obada

Obada has overcame a lot on his journey to the NFL.

  • “The 6-6, 256-pound prospect was trafficked from the Netherlands to London as a child,” said DallasCowboys.com’s David Helman.

    “Where he and his sister were abandoned and eventually entered into social services.” Obada’s rough journey and nonspecific details about his time with the London Warriors is about the extent of what can be said with certainty about this recent signing.

    He played just five games with the Warriors in 2013. His only season with the franchise culminated in a Warriors championship.

    I have to believe overcoming that type of adversity would have some positive impact on Obada’s ability to play in the NFL. The fact that Dorsey is taking a chance on him proves he at least deserves a shot at Houston’s empty post.
