Marquay McDaniel (born April 20, 1984) is a professional American and Canadian football wide receiver for the Calgary Stampeders of the Canadian Football League (CFL). He was signed by the Denver Broncos as an undrafted free agent in 2007. He played college football for the Hampton Pirates. He has also been a member of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats (CFL).

In his rookie season McDaniel played in all 18 games and led the CFL with 2,535 all-purpose yards. He had 688 yards and three touchdowns on 57 receptions, 1,153 yards on 57 kickoff returns, 615 yards on 73 punt returns and 79 yards on five missed-field goal returns. He was Hamilton’s nominee for the CFL's Most Outstanding Rookie Award. He had six catches for 100 yards in the Ticats’ East semifinal loss to BC.

In 2010 McDaniel started all 18 regular-season games for the Tiger-Cats and finished second on the club in receiving yards with 998. He made 76 catches with seven of the grabs going for touchdowns. He also returned 15 kickoffs for 332 yards and six punts for 46 yards. McDaniel had six catches for 85 yards in the East semifinal.

2011 was a down year for McDaniel as he only saw action in one game, making four catches for 60 yards in a July 16 contest against the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Shortly after being released by Hamilton on Aug. 31, he signed with the Stampeders and spent the remainder of the season on Calgary’s practice roster.

2012 was a return to form for McDaniel, he started 14 games and all three post-season contests. In the regular season, he caught 53 passes for 744 yards and three touchdowns. He also carried the ball twice for 15 yards. His first touchdowns as a Stampeder came on Sept. 23 in Saskatchewan when he recorded two scores. McDaniel also saw time on special teams, returning 12 punts for 130 yards, one kickoff for 18 yards and one missed field goal for 31 yards. In the playoffs, McDaniel tallied 12 catches for 220 yards and a touchdown. His major came on the second play of the West final as he made a 68-yard catch and run for his longest career touchdown.
