Jay Ajayi celebrated a TD by pretending to be Santa

The Eagles’ first touchdown of the night was a festive one.

Jay Ajayi got the Eagles on the board in the first quarter of their Christmas night matchup against the Raiders. He celebrated appropriately, by pretending to be Santa.

Ajayi got into the end zone on a nifty little pass from quarterback Nick Foles. He took it 17 yards for the score.

Ajayi threw his imaginary sack of presents over his shoulder and carried it to the stands, where he handed his touchdown ball to a fan in the front row.

The Eagles will lock up home field advantage throughout the playoffs if they get a win against the Raiders on Monday night. That would make this a pretty great Christmas for the Eagles and their fans.
