[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.

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

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.
