Raymondo Antoine McDonald (born September 2, 1984) is an American football defensive end who is currently a free agent. He was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers in the third round of the 2007 NFL Draft. He played college football at Florida, where he was a member of a BCS National Championship team.
McDonald was born in Pahokee, Florida, in 1984. He attended Glades Central High School in Belle Glade, Florida, and played high school football for the Glades Central Raiders. As a junior in 2000, he was a starting defensive lineman for the Glades Central Raiders team that won the Florida Class 3A state championship, and was named Palm Beach County Player of the Year as a senior in 2001.
McDonald accepted an athletic scholarship to attend the University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida, where he played for coach Ron Zook and coach Urban Meyer's Florida Gators football teams from 2003 to 2006. The Gators coaching staff decided to redshirt him as a true freshman in 2002, and he worked with the Gators scout team. McDonald was a team captain of the 2006 Gators squad that finished 13–1 and defeated the Ohio State Buckeyes 41–14 in the 2007 BCS National Championship Game to win the Gators' second national championship. Following the 2006 season, he was recognized as a first-team All-Southeastern Conference (SEC) selection.
