How ‘Chicago Fire’ Wrote Out Taylor Kinney’s Leave Of Absence

Taylor Kinney has officially hung up his firefighter jacket. The “Chicago Fire” star was absent from the show on Wednesday. Spoiler alert on how he was written out for the time being. On Wednesday’s episode, which was titled “Damage Control,” it was revealed that Taylor’s character, Kelly Severide, is gone attending “the best arson investigation training program in the world.” Access Hollywood confirmed last month that Taylor is taking a break from the show to deal with a personal matter.
