Former National Football League (NFL) player Daniel Ogama Adongo has been deported from the United States after immigration authorities cited a visa overstay and a criminal record.

Adongo, a 37-year-old Kenyan and former linebacker for the Indianapolis Colts, was removed from the US on June 20 by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Chicago, according to a statement released by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

The deportation followed a March 23 removal order issued by a Department of Justice immigration judge.
