Mike Daniels (born 24 July 1992) is an English rugby union player who plays for Newcastle Falcons in the RFU Championship.

Daniels was part of Bath Rugby academy during the 2010–11 season before moving to Northcote Birkenhead Rugby Club in New Zealand for the 2011 campaign. He then studied Chemistry and Sports Science at Loughborough University whilst playing for Loughborough Students RUFC.

Daniels signed his first professional contract with Aviva Premiership outfit Worcester Warriors from the 2014–15 season.[1] On 1 June 2017, Daniels leaves Sixways to join Gloucestershire-based club Hartpury RFC, who were promoted to the RFU Championship from the 2017–18 season.[2]

On 11 September 2019, Daniels signs for Newcastle Falcons on a one-year contract following a successful trial with the club.[6]
