Steve Largent Biography

Steve Largent is a retired American football player and a former Republican politician, having served in the U.S. House of Representatives for Oklahoma, from 1994 until 2002. Prior to his political career, Largent was a wide receiver for the Seattle Seahawks in the National Football League for his entire 14-season professional football career. He held several all-time receiving records when he retired.

Largent joined the Seahawks in 1976. He was selected to the NFL Pro Bowl seven times, the first Seahawk to earn that honor. In 1989, Largent became the first Seahawks player to win the Steve Largent Award for his spirit, dedication, and integrity. He was also the first receiver in NFL history to achieve 100 touchdown receptions in his career. Largent was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1995, his first year of eligibility.

In 1994, Oklahoma's 1st District Congressman Jim Inhofe resigned to run in a special election to succeed Senator David Boren. Largent won the election to succeed Inhofe in Congress; pursuant to an Oklahoma statute, Governor David Walters designated the special election in which Largent was elected to serve the remainder of Inhofe's term in the 103rd Congress before beginning his term in the 104th Congress. Largent took office on November 29, 1994 and was re-elected to the three succeeding Congresses, never winning less than 60 percent of the vote in the heavily Republican Tulsa-based district. Largent decided to run for Governor of Oklahoma in 2002. He easily won the Republican nomination and resigned his House seat on February 15 to devote his energy to the race. Initially seen as an overwhelming favorite against Democratic state senator Brad Henry, Largent lost to Henry by just under 7,000 votes.

After his political career, Largent became President and CEO of CTIA-The Wireless Association in November 2003 until May 2014. CTIA is an international nonprofit membership organization founded in 1984, representing all sectors of wireless communications.
