The San Diego Chargershave lost three straight games and four of their last five, but that didn't stop them from jumping headlong into the holiday spirit this week. As the team prepared to board a flight to Cleveland for its last road game of the season, several players donned festive garb while posing next to a Christmas tree.



Rookie tight end Hunter Henry and rookie fullback Derek Watt sported red and green sweaters, respectively. Henry's featured a rendering of Santa Claus with eggnog standing next to Jesus flashing a peace sign. Watt's sweater also highlighted Jesus, albeit a younger version woven into a baby carrier and holding a candy cane.



Rookie defensive end Joey Bosa wore a green sweater as well. His included three distressed gingerbread men about to be plucked off a red plate by what is presumably the hand of Santa Claus. Kyle Emanuel decided to go a slightly different route with his attire. The 25-year-old linebacker sported a red-and-green jacket and tie, each checkered with small Christmas trees.



The Chargers shared some other holiday getups in a photo album publicized on their official Twitter account.



San Diego (5-9) visits the winless Browns on Saturday at FirstEnergy Stadium. ESPN's FPI gives the Chargers a 71 percent chance to emerge victorious in Week 16.
