Lynn Chandnois, a special teams star for the Steelers whose average on kickoff returns ranks second only to Gale Sayers in NFL history, died Tuesday. He was 86. Michigan State, where Chandnois was a two-way standout in the late 1940s, said Thursday that Chandnois died in Flint, Mich. Steelers Chairman Dan Rooney called Chandnois one of the team's "great players from the past."
