Former Pittsburgh Steelers lineman Terry Long, who was indicted earlier this year on federal fraud and arson charges stemming from a chicken-processing business he owned, died Tuesday at a Pittsburgh hospital.

He was 45, and an autopsy Wednesday failed to reveal the cause of death, the Allegheny County Coroner announced. Foul play was not suspected.

Long was a starting right guard for the Steelers from 1984 to 1991, when he was suspended for violating the NFL’s steroids policy. Long attempted suicide after he was suspended, but later rejoined the team although he was not resigned after one season.

In March, Long was indicted by a federal grand jury on charges he fraudulently obtained loans for a chicken-processing plant which prosecutors claimed he burned to the ground for the insurance money.

After neighbors opposed Long’s plans to open a chicken slaughterhouse in the processing plant, Long allegedly set fire to his Value Added Foods Group, destroying it on September 25, 2003, federal prosecutors said.

The charges carried up to 55 years in prison and a fine of up to $2 million.
