Riders re-sign Canadian DT Charbel Dabire

The Saskatchewan Roughriders have re-signed Canadian defensive tackle Charbel Dabire for the 2024 season.

The six-foot-one, 290-pound defender had a career year in 2023, suiting in all 18 games for the first time ever. The 27-year-old recorded 13 defensive tackles, two special teams tackles, and two sacks.

Originally selected by the Riders 44th overall in the fifth round of the 2019 CFL Draft, Dabire has played all four CFL campaigns in Saskatchewan. In 55 career regular-season games, the Toronto native has registered 37 defensive tackles, three special teams tackles and six sacks.  

Dabire played collegiately for Wagner College in New York, suiting up in 33 games over three seasons. He recorded 73 tackles, 8.5 tackles for loss, one forced fumble, two sacks and returned a blocked kick for a touchdown during his time as a Seahawk.

Saskatchewan will begin their 2024 season on Saturday, June 8 when they travel to Edmonton to face the Elks.
