João Rodrigues de Sá (c.1555 - ? ) was the first Count of Penaguião, a Portuguese title. He was succeeded by his son Francisco de Sá de Menezes (1598-1647) and then his son João Rodrigues de Sá e Menezes (1619-1658). His son Francisco de Sá e Menezes (c.1640-1677) was also 1st Marquis of Fontes and his son João Rodrigo de Sá e Menezes succeeded him.
