Dan Feeney was born May 15, 1997, in Orlando Park, Illinois. He is a guard in the National Football League.
Feeney set records in his freshman year in 2012, by starting all 12 games and earned honorable mention All-Big Ten honors at right guard, and did not allow a single sack all season. He suffered a Lisfranc fracture during a scrimmage that would cause him to miss the entire 2013 season. Feeney was redshirted to maintain three years of eligibility.
Feeney returned in 2014 to what ESPN termed "the B1G's most underrated position group". He started all 12 games in a year where Indiana set program single-season records with 3,163 rushing yards, led by 2,036 yards from Heisman candidate Tevin Coleman. Ahead of his redshirt junior season in 2015, Feeney was named to the Lombardi Award and Outland Trophy watch lists. At the end of the season, Feeney earned consensus first-team All-American honors from ESPN, CBS Sports, the Associated Press and Sports Illustrated. Prior to the start of the 2016 season, Feeney announced he would be returning for his senior year. On September 10, 2016, Feeney suffered a concussion while playing against Ball State. Feeney would be medically cleared to return to action prior to the Hoosiers game against Maryland on October 29, 2016. On November 30, 2016, Feeney was named First Team All-Big Ten. At the end of the season, Feeney earned his second All-American Team honors by the Associated Press.
The Los Angeles Chargers selected Feeney in the third round (71st overall) of the 2017 NFL Draft. Feeney was the second guard the Los Angeles Chargers selected in the draft, behind Forrest Lamp (second round, 38th overall). He was also the fourth offensive guard and the fifth interior offensive lineman selected in the 2017 NFL Draft. He made his professional regular-season debut during the Los Angeles Chargers season-opening 21-24 loss to the Denver Broncos. On October 29, 2017, Feeney earned his first career start at left guard during a 13-21 loss to the New England Patriots after Matt Slauson suffered a season-ending biceps injury. He ended up starting the rest of the season at left guard and was named to the PFWA All-Rookie Team. Feeney entered 2018 as the starting left guard, where he started all 16 games.
On March 19, 2021, Feeney signed a one-year contract with the New York Jets. Feeny signed a contract with the Miami Dolphins in 2023.
