Former San Diego Chargers quarterback Jesse Freitas, wasfound dead in a parked car in Northern California according to the associated press.
Petaluma police Lt. Dan Fish said an investigation found no indication of trauma or foul play. An autopsy was performed Tuesday but authorities were awaiting the results from toxicology tests before making a final determination, Fish said.
Freitas, 63, was fully clothed and on his back with his left arm across his chest, as if he had been lying down to take a nap or rest.
Freitas apparently had come to the area to meet with a real estate agent in the neighborhood but missed the appointment, Fish said.
Freitas was drafted by the Chargers in 1974. Over the next two seasons, he played in 13 games and threw eight touchdowns as a backup to Hall of Famer Dan Fouts.
