Chicago Fire Season 14 Michael Bradway Leaving Jack Damon Not Returning

Bradway was recently cast in Prime Video’s series adaptation of Carley Fortune’s 2022 novel Every Summer After, and production is already underway; Chicago Fire producers are said to be open to having Bradway reprise his role, should his schedule allow it.

Bradway’s exit comes on the heels of several other Chicago Fire cast members departing ahead of Season 14; fans have also seen the last of Jake Lockett as Sam Carver and Daniel Kyri as Darren Ritter.
