Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the CC2500RGP?

Yes. The symbol is RF:CC2500 and the footprint Package_DFN_QFN:Texas_RGP0020H_VQFN-20-1EP_4x4mm_P0.5mm_EP2.4x2.4mm, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the CC2500RGP?

QFN-20-EP(4x4), with 21 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the CC2500RGP datasheet?

Texas Instruments publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the CC2500RGP?

JLCPCB lists it as part C1526164, with 0 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the CC2500RGP?

Parts like it in the library: the CC2500RGPR by Texas Instruments and the CC2500RTKR by Texas Instruments. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.

Which open-source boards use the CC2500RGP?

18 boards in 15 repositories on GitHub; the most starred are listed on this page, with their KiCad files.
