Daniel Adongo, a 37-year-old former Kenyan rugby star and NFL player, has been deported from the United States. Adongo, who played as a linebacker for the Indianapolis Colts for two seasons, was removed from the country in June due to an overstayed visa and multiple arrests. His visa expired in 2016, a year after his NFL career concluded. Federal immigration authorities cited the visa violation and a history of arrests, including domestic violence allegations that led to his release from the Colts in 2015, as reasons for his deportation. Adongo's case highlights the impact of the Trump administration's immigration enforcement policies on individuals with past legal issues in the US.
