Patrick O'Driscoll, born in 1927 and died on 19 October 2001, was an Irish Gaelic footballer who played as a right corner-back at senior level for the Cork county team, and he was named in the Cork Football Team of the Millennium in January 2000. He joined the team in the 1950 championship and was a regular in the starting fifteen until he retired a decade later, winning two National League medals and two Munster medals but never an All-Ireland winners' medal.
