Todd Michael Sievers (born April 1, 1980) is a former American football placekicker who played college football for the Miami Hurricanes from 1998 to 2002, being part of the 2001 Division 1-A National Championship team.
He also played for the Houston Texans of the National Football League during the 2003 and 2004 offseasons.
Sievers played at Ankeny High School in Ankeny, Iowa, serving as the team's kicker and punter. He set state records with a 63-yard field goal, as well as in scoring with 77 points.
He also lettered in baseball and soccer.
Sievers served as kickoff specialist as a true freshman. He played in 11 of 12 games that season (missed game against Temple due to death of grandfather). 14 of his 61 kickoffs went for touchbacks.
Sievers was redshirted prior to his second season.
Following two seasons without any field goal attempts, Sievers went 11-of-17 on field goals and 52-of-58 on extra points while leading the team in scoring with 85. Kicked two 50-yard extra points against Boston College and Florida, due to multiple unsportsmanlike conduct penalties.
Sievers led the nation in field goals per game with 1.91, making 21-of-26 field goals for the season. He set a university record for scoring in a season with 119. Kicked a (then) career-best 48-yard field goal against Syracuse. Went 1-of-2 in field goals against Nebraska during the Rose Bowl. Miami went on to win 37-14, finishing the season 11-0 and being named National champions.
