Christopher Tennant (b. May 7, 2003) is a preferred walk-on place kicker from Mill Valley High School in Shawnee, Kansas, who is majoring in finance.

A true freshman who took over kicking duties during the final five regular-season games in 2021, Tennant made 5 of 8 field goal attempts and all 16 extra point attempts.

He was the first true freshman at K-State to make a field goal since Joe Rheem in 2001.

Tennant connected on a 51-yard field goal at Texas, which tied for the longest by a true freshman in school history (also kicked by Jamie Rheem in 1996 against Nebraska).
