It is very likely that all dromeosaurs (the clade to which Deinonychus belonged) had feathers, although for Deinonychus specifically none have ever been found. It is known for a fact that very closely related dinosaurs were feathered and therefore Deinonychus probably was too.

well, both theories about it not having feathers and it not having feathers are well supported. I personally agree that it could have had feathers, that is the one that is most likely true as well. If it doesn't have feathers, then it would basically be a smaller version of jurassic park's velociraptors. But since it is believed and probably true that almost all dromaeosaurids had feathers, it is probably so that it contained feathers.

What does the deinonychus dinosaur look like?
We can only speculate one what color deinonychus was. We do know that deinonychus had feathers from preserved feathers in close relatives of deinonychus and from quill knobs found in young deinonychus specimens. The feathers on the arms and the end of the tail were probably large and well structured, giving the dinosaur a very birdlike appearance. It would have stood a little over three feet tall and measured about ten feet long from the nose to the end of the tail. One of the most notable features of deinonychus were the claws on its feet. Each foot bore four toes: two contacted the ground and acted as normal toes, one remained as a dewclaw, and the inner toe bore a sickle-shaped claw that it kept raised above the ground. This earned deinonychus its name, which means "terrible claw." The link below shows and artist's interpretation of what deinonychus may have looked like. Note that the colors are speculation.
