Daniel Currams (born 1989) is an Irish hurler and Gaelic footballer who plays as a midfielder and centre-forward for the Offaly senior teams.

Born in Kilcormac, County Offaly, Currams first arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of sixteen when he first linked up with the Offaly minor teams as a dual player, before later joining the under-21 hurling side. He made his senior hurling debut during the 2008 championship before later joining the football side during the 2012 championship.[1][2] Since then Currams has been a regular member of the hurling team, and has won one National League (Division 2) medal.[citation needed]

As a member of the Leinster inter-provincial team on a number of occasions, Currams has won one Railway Cup medal. At club level he is a one-time Leinster medallist with Kilcormac–Killoughey. In addition to this he has also won three championship medals.[3][4][5]

His uncle, Liam Currams, was a dual All-Ireland medallist with Offaly.[citation needed]
