Daley was born in Chestnut Hill, Pennsylvania and played college golf at Old Dominion University. He did not turn pro until 1992 at the age of 32, having been a wholesale credit manager since graduating from college. Daley has been a member of the Nationwide Tour since 2004.

His best finish was a tie for sixth at the 1996 B.C. Open. In the 2000 PGA Tour Q-School tournament, he rolled in a five-foot putt during the fourth round, only to have the ball pop out of the off-center cup and back onto the putting surface. He missed his PGA Tour card by a single stroke.
Daley's best finish in 2007 on the Nationwide Tour was a fourth place at the Legend Financial Group Classic.
