Daniel Ojambo Adongo (born 12 October 1989) is a Kenyan sportsman. He moved to South Africa in 2007 to join the Sharks' rugby academy and played professional rugby union in South Africa and New Zealand between 2011 and 2013. He then converted to American football, joining the Indianapolis Colts as an outside linebacker until 2015. He is currently a free agent.
As a rugby player, he plays either as a lock or a flanker, and last played Super Rugby for the Southern Kings in the 2013 Super Rugby season.
In Kenya, he played for Strathmore School, where he was also crowned Sportsman of the Year. He joined the Kenya Harlequins junior team. He was spotted by South African scouts at the 2006 Safari Sevens tournament, playing in the schools category for Strathmore School. In 2007, he joined to the Sharks academy. He progressed from Under–19 level in 2008 to Under–21 level in 2010.
He was included in the Sharks XV squad for the 2010 Vodacom Cup, but failed to play in any matches. He did play in twelve Under–21 matches later in the year and was once again included in the squad for the 2011 Vodacom Cup competition, where he made his debut in the opening match of the season, a 30–19 victory over the Blue Bulls. He made a total of ten appearances in that competition, scoring three tries. He was also included in the Sharks squad for the 2011 Currie Cup Premier Division, but failed to feature in that competition.
