The Dallas Cowboys have signed British player Efe Obada ahead of the 2015 season on a three-year contract.
The defensive end has played just five games for the London Warriors, and had no experience of the sport prior to 2014.
He told nfluk: "This is a dream. It's amazing and life-changing. It's a major turning point in my life and feels like a movie.
"This could be it, I can change my life. This is unreal, this doesn't happen to people like me. I've never even been outside of London since I arrived in the UK."
Obada currently works in a London warehouse.
