Patrick Michael O’Donnell was born on February 22, 1991, in Lake Worth Beach, Florida. He developed his football skills at Palm Beach Central High School, where he lettered three times in football and track. During his high school career, O’Donnell demonstrated versatility, averaging 45.1 yards on punts, achieving a 95 percent touchback rate on kickoffs, and making seven field goals as a senior. He also played linebacker and tight end, showcasing his athletic range early on.
O’Donnell continued his collegiate career at the University of Cincinnati, committing after being ranked a two-star recruit by Rivals.com. He redshirted his true freshman year in 2009 due to injury after appearing in three games. From 2010 to 2012, he served as the starting punter, contributing to the Bearcats leading the nation in punting average in 2011. That season, he averaged 43.8 yards per punt, with 17 punts of 50 yards or more, earning first-team All-Big East honors and becoming a semi-finalist for the Ray Guy Award. He transferred to the University of Miami in 2013 to be closer to his family due to his father’s illness. At Miami, O’Donnell set a school record with a 47.1 punting average and was named first-team All-ACC and the Hurricanes’ Special Teams MVP.
His professional career began when the Chicago Bears selected him as the only punter in the 2014 NFL Draft, marking him as the first punter picked by the Bears since 1996. He signed a four-year contract and made an immediate impact, earning a spot on the PFWA All-Rookie Team in 2014. Throughout his tenure with the Bears (2014-2021), O’Donnell developed a reputation for consistent performance, including a career-high 47.0 punting average in 2017 and setting a franchise record for most yards per punt (45.0 career) and most yards per punt in a season (46.98 in 2017). His career also featured notable plays, such as throwing a 38-yard touchdown pass on a fake punt in 2017. Following his time with the Bears, he played for the Green Bay Packers (2022, 2024), Atlanta Falcons (2023), and San Francisco 49ers (2024), before signing with the Arizona Cardinals in 2025.
