BREAKING: Commanders Cut Camaron Cheeseman After Botched Snap vs. Rams

Camaron Cheeseman has been cut by the Washington Commanders after a poor performance against the Los Angeles Rams.

The Washington Commanders are firing someone, but it may not be who most people think.

According to the team, long snapper Camaron Cheeseman has been cut following his performance against the Los Angeles Rams.

Cheeseman snapped the ball to punter Tress Way in the second quarter against the Rams, but the snap went awry, forcing the Commanders to not get a punt off and keep the ball in scoring territory for Los Angeles.

“That’s not good enough,” Ron Rivera said after the game. “And we’re going to evaluate that.”

And it’s clear that the evaluation has led to Cheeseman being cut.

Cheeseman, 25, was drafted by Washington in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft and has been the team’s long snapper ever since. But now, the Commanders will look for a new answer at the position.

In the NFL, long snappers hardly ever get credit for when they play well. They only get attention when they play poorly, like Cheeseman did on Sunday against the Rams. And it’s clear that one bad game can cost you your job. Unfortunately for Cheeseman, that’s the case here.

The Commanders have three games left in the season, and perhaps this is a wakeup call for players on the team that evaluations are being made and that the team needs to play as well as it can during the last stretch in what appears to be a lost season for Washington.

The Commanders are back in action on Sunday against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium.
