Patrick Bradley (born 23 May 1981)[1] is an Irish sportsman who plays Gaelic football for John Mitchel's Glenullin and the Derry county team. With the county he has won two National League titles, and individually an All Stars Award for his performance in the 2007 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship (and has been nominated a further four times).

With his club Bradley has won the Derry Senior Football Championship. He usually plays at full forward for both club and county. Bradley is regarded as one of the best forwards in Ireland,[3] due to his accuracy in front of the posts[4] with both left and right feet - from both open play and frees.[5]

He has consistently been a high scorer for Derry, with a career high of 2-38 (44 points)[A1] during the 2004 All-Ireland Championship. He is third all-time top Ulster scorer in Championship football with a tally of 13-177 (216 points).[2]
