Book Steve Largent for your event

Stephen Michael Largent is widely regarded as one of the most accomplished wide receivers in the history of the National Football League (NFL). After playing college football at the University of Tulsa, Largent was drafted by the Houston Oilers in 1976. However, his career truly took off after being traded to the Seattle Seahawks during the preseason of his rookie year. Largent spent his entire 14-year NFL career with the Seahawks, where he became a cornerstone of the franchise and set numerous receiving records. His precise route running, reliable hands, and ability to make clutch plays made him a fan favorite and a nightmare for opposing defenses.

Throughout his career, Largent consistently demonstrated an elite level of performance, finishing his career as the NFL's all-time leader in receptions, receiving yards, and touchdown catches. His ability to maintain such a high level of play over a long period of time was a testament to his work ethic and football intelligence. Largent was selected to seven Pro Bowls and was named to the NFL's All-Decade Team for the 1980s. His contributions to the game were recognized when he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1995, solidifying his legacy as one of the greatest wide receivers to ever play the game.

After retiring from football, Largent transitioned into a successful political career. As a member of the Republican Party, he was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives for Oklahoma's 1st congressional district in 1994. Largent served four terms in Congress, consistently winning over 60% of the vote in each election. His political career was marked by his commitment to conservative principles and his focus on issues such as tax reform and government accountability. In 2002, Largent resigned from Congress to run for governor of Oklahoma, a race he narrowly lost to Democrat Brad Henry.

Largent's impact on both the football field and in the political arena is undeniable. His ability to excel in two very different fields speaks to his versatility, leadership, and dedication. Whether catching passes in the NFL or serving his constituents in Congress, Largent has left an indelible mark on American sports and politics.
