Will Carver Be Back In Chicago Fire Season 13?

As if losing Boden wasn’t already a big change towards the end of the Chicago Fire season 12 finale, Kidd also revealed that Carver took another furlough on the heels of a bad call when he and Kelly Severide’s half-brother Jack Damon got into a brawl with civilians. The disastrous shift was made so much worse by his argument with Violet Mikami in the locker about the status of their relationship. The pair have been casually dating for a while, but still scarred by the tragic death of Evan Hawkins, Violet can’t see that Carver has genuine feelings for her.

NBC left the resolution for Carver’s disappearance for Chicago Fire season 13, but considering One Chicago’s history with character exits, there are concerns about him potentially never coming back. Lockett’s previous social media activity hinted that he would be back. That being said, unless there’s concrete proof that Carver will find himself at Firehouse 51, it’s difficult to get attached to the idea only to be disappointed come fall. Rosende’s time in the first-responder procedural is a perfect example since there was barely any set-up to his departure in the Chicago Fire season 12 premiere.

Those holding out hope that he will come back can find solace in the idea that there’s nothing to be gained by writing out Carver, especially in light of the mass exodus that One Chicago just experienced. Chicago Fire season 13 will be better if it retains as many familiar faces as it can. This way, there’s some semblance of stability going into the new year, which would be very helpful with Firehouse 51 getting used to not having Chief Boden around.
