Donald Clay Dohoney (March 4, 1932 – July 4, 1993) was an American football player.

He played both on offense and defense at the end position,[1] was captain of Michigan State's 1953 team that won the Big Ten Conference championship and defeated UCLA in the 1954 Rose Bowl.

[2] In March 1954, Dohoney signed with the Chicago Cardinals of the National Football League (1954).

Chicago coach Joe Stydahar called Dohoney "the best defensive end developed in college ball in a great many years.

He rushes the passer real good, plays the running game well and is one of the most rugged players we've seen.
