In his final year with Virginia Tech, Nicolas spent the majority of it rehabilitating a hand that was broken during spring training, an injury that he played with in the regular season. In addition, he had jammed fingers in his left hand. His condition lead to him being called "Lobster Boy" by Line Coach Charles Wiley. Later on in the season, he was suspended for half of the annual rivalry game against the University of Virginia. This suspension stemmed from an incident in which Nicolas made contact with referee Ron Cherry following a penalty being declared on him. Nicolas claimed in the press conference after that it was not intentional. He finished the season with 45 tackles with seven for loss and 2.5 sacks. He was named to the 2015 All-ACC Third Team by the Conference Coaches.

Nicolas was projected by NFL.com and CBS Sports as a mid to late round pick. Lance Zierlein of NFL.com commented that he had quick pass rush moves that can catch slower players off guard. He also complimented his athletic ability and burst to make up ground when chasing ball carriers. However, he was concerned by his lack of strength and size, noting he would probably not continue on the defensive line in the NFL. He also noted he tended to avoid contact, and that he had poor instincts covering the run. Dane Brugler and Rob Rang of CBS Sports also commented on his athleticism and speed, and also commented he was a good special teams player. However, they also noted he did not have the strength and did not believe him to be a point of attack player. They projected him to be an outside linebacker in a 4–3 scheme as opposed to a defensive end.

Dadi L'homme Nicolas (born September 29, 1992) is a Haitian professional gridiron football defensive end for the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League (CFL). He attended Atlantic High School in Delray Beach, Florida. He played college football at Virginia Tech, and was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the sixth round of the 2016 NFL Draft.

Nicolas was born on September 29, 1992 in Port-au-Prince, Haiti to mother Esperanta Estime. He grew up in Florida and did not begin playing football until his senior year, instead lettering in basketball. During that year he played for Head Coach Chris Bean at Atlantic High School and had 70 tackles, 11 sacks, four forced fumbles, and two pass break-ups. He was named to the Honorable mention all-area selection by The Palm Beach Post. He was not highly recruited coming out of high school and enrolled at Virginia Tech on July 6, 2011.

Nicolas was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the 28th pick of the sixth round, 203rd overall. Adam Teicher of ESPN.com commented that he was too light to play on the defensive line and he'd have to add some weight to be a viable outside linebacker. He commented that he would possibly end up on the practice squad as a rookie. During the rookie minicamp that year, Nicolas commented that playing in the NFL was "very different" and that he was able to understand the game better than he did in college. He also mentioned he wanted to put on more weight and that he believed he had "great potential" at his new position. The Chiefs believed they could use him at the linebacker position while Justin Houston continued recovery from ACL surgery.
