Cheeseman was unranked by 247Sports.com coming out of Lincoln High School in Gahanna, Ohio. He committed to Michigan on December 17, 2015. Cheeseman was drafted by the Washington Football Team in the sixth round (225th overall) of the 2021 NFL draft. He signed his four-year rookie contract on May 13, 2021.

Following multiple bad snaps by Cheeseman in the 2023 Week 2 win over the Denver Broncos, head coach Ron Rivera announced that the team would be bringing in free agent long snappers for work outs. Despite working out five different long snappers, the Commanders chose to stick with Cheeseman. On December 18, 2023, he was released by the Commanders. The release followed the team's Week 15 game against the Los Angeles Rams, in which Cheesman botched two snaps, one on a punt and the other on an extra point.

Personal life

Cheeseman plans to study dentistry at Ohio State University once his NFL career is over. He took the Dental Admission Test at Columbus State Community College and scored in the 92nd percentile. Cheeseman was previously a research assistant in the field while at Michigan, where he co-authored a research paper on an orthodontic appliance for fixing underbites. While not preparing for his dentistry career after the NFL, he is an aspiring Lego collector. His favorite sets include the Lego Death Star, and the Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser.
