Eerie pictures show apocalyptic scene at Chargers facility as players practice amid LA fires Disturbing images have emerged from Los Angeles Chargers practice, where many players opted to wear masks amid dangerous air-quality levels as they prepared for their playoff opener in Houston on Saturday.
Backup quarterback Taylor Heinicke, defensive tackle Otito Ogbonnia and offensive tackle Joe Alt were among the players seen working in the apocalyptic setting, which resembled a scene out of Terminator 2.
Of course, it wasn't the masks that made the scene so shocking, but rather the brownish-yellow haze that hung in the air as the Palisades Fires continue to burn along the Pacific Coast.
Coach Jim Harbaugh had the Chargers' offensive and defensive units practice separately to limit their time on the field.
'Abundant prayers to all those that have been affected by this tragedy,' Harbaugh told the media Thursday while wearing an LAFD baseball hat.
