Steve Little (born February 19, 1956 in Springfield, Illinois) was an American football kicker and punter in the National Football League for the St. Louis Cardinals. He is the 2nd highest drafted kicker in NFL history.
Little was an All-American placekicker and punter during his years at the University of Arkansas. He kicked an NCAA record-tying 67 yard field goal in 1977.
Little died at the age of 43, having spent years as a quadraplegic after suffering injuries in an automobile accident in 1980, shortly after he had been released by the Cardinals.
