Adam Sinagra (born January 10, 1995) is a former Canadian football quarterback. He played for the Calgary Dinos of the Canada West conference of U Sports. He is a Vanier Cup champion after winning the 2019 and was named the game's MVP. He also won the Hec Crighton Trophy in 2018 as U Sports football's most outstanding player. After his college career Sinagra went undrafted in the CFL draft.
Sinagra became the starting quarterback for the Dinos mid-way through the 2016 season and led the team to Hardy Cup conference championships in 2016, 2017, and 2019.[1] In 2018, he won the Hec Crighton Trophy as the most valuable player in U Sports football after passing for a U Sports record 3,233 passing yards, completing 186 passes out of 281 attempts with 23 passing touchdowns and five interceptions.[2] In 2019, he was the starting quarterback in the 55th Vanier Cup game, where he led the Dinos to a 27–13 victory over the Montreal Carabins and was named the game's Most Valuable Player.[3]
Sinagra was ranked as the 14th best player in the CFL's Amateur Scouting Bureau December rankings for players eligible in the 2020 CFL Draft, and sixth by players in U Sports, at the end of the 2019 U Sports season, but dropped off the CFL's final Top 20 list in April.[4] He went undrafted in the 2020 CFL Draft.[5] He was reportedly added as a non-counter player by the Montreal Alouettes, although it had not been officially announced.[6] However, the season was cancelled due to the Covid-19 Pandemic. Eventually, Sinagra announced his retirement before spending time with any CFL team.
