George "Chief" Cheroke (January 2, 1921 – October 19, 1986) was a professional American football guard who played one season for the Cleveland Browns in the All-America Football Conference (AAFC).
Cheroke grew up in Ohio and attended Ohio State University, where he was a standout player on the school's football team as a sophomore in 1941 under head coach Paul Brown.
He left Ohio State after the season to join the military during World War II.
Cheroke grew up in Shadyside, Ohio and attended Ohio State University, where he played guard on the school's football team starting as a sophomore in 1941.
Cheroke saw his first action on the varsity team after Lin Houston, the regular starter at right guard, suffered an injury.
In his first game, against Pitt, Cheroke blocked a punt that led to a safety.
The Ohio State Buckeyes posted a 6–1–1 record in 1941 under head coach Paul Brown and were ranked 13th in the nation by the Associated Press.
He was given a trophy by the Ohio State Journal Downtown Quarterback Club as the sophomore who improved the most during the season.
Cheroke left Ohio State before the 1942 season to serve in the Army Air Force during World War II.
He spent over four years in the service and was deployed in the European Theatre of World War II for 18 months, rising to the rank of captain.

After his discharge in 1946, Cheroke joined the Cleveland Browns, a team under formation in the All-America Football Conference and coached by Paul Brown.
Cheroke was one of five Ohio State players who signed with the Browns despite having remaining college eligibility, which caused a controversy because some Ohio State alumni and administrators wanted them to come back and play at the collegiate level.
Cheroke played in all of the Browns' games in 1946 as the team finished the regular season with a 12–2 record and won the AAFC championship game.
Brown traded Cheroke and four other players to the Baltimore Colts for guard Weldon Humble before the start of the 1947 season.
