Georgetown, Football

Keynan Richardson-Cook a.k.a Chef K (he/him/his) is a football player at Georgetown University, majoring in Human Science in the School of Health with plans to attain a DPT (Doctor of Physical Therapy) after graduating in 2026. He was born and raised in Beckley, West Virginia before moving to DC and beginning Grassroots during his freshman summer (2022). Since then, he has been active in various programs and is currently a Grassroots Health Training Fellow, where he trains student-athletes to facilitate the GRH curriculum and advance health equity in our community. Outside of football and Grassroots Health, Keynan enjoys spending quality time with his teammates, friends, and family.

This summer, Chef K has been cooking up something spicy with Grassroots Health, on the field, and in the classroom (newfound chemist to be specific)! Keynan spends most of his time as a student-athlete in class or on the field, but always knows how to have a good time! You will always catch Chef K on aux or maybe even on the dance floor, but his music taste is impeccable (like his food). His best dishes include tacos, pasta, and the best eggs around! Although Chef K is focused on football now, his hoop dreams are still very alive and he enjoys playing almost any competitive sport, especially Dodge the Barriers!
