The 2017 Donegal Senior Football Championship was the 95th official edition of Donegal GAA's premier Gaelic football tournament for senior graded clubs in County Donegal. Sixteen teams competed, with the winner representing Donegal in the Ulster Senior Club Football Championship.

The championship began with four groups of four, and continued with a knock-out format.

Glenswilly was defending champion after defeating Cill Chartha by a scoreline of 1–10 to 0–12 in the 2016 final.

C. J. Molloy scored a contender for goal of the season against Glenswilly in his club's opening group match, though his club lost.[1] Directly from the second-half throw-in, he soloed through the Glenswilly defence and kicked the ball into the net from a distance of around 25 yards.[2]

This was Burt's debut in the senior grade after winning the 2016 Donegal I.F.C. title.
