At the end of this last season of "Chicago Pd, " it looked like Erin Lindsay was moving on from the show.

Sophia Bush's fate revealed
It turns out that after four seasons on "Chicago PD" Sophia Bush is going to be leaving the show. At the end of last season, she left the Chicago Intelligence Unit for a job in New York and wouldn't even answer Jay's call.

Sophia Bush could end up coming back for a bit so that they can tie up the story line with her, but this isn't confirmed either.
No word yet on what she is moving on to do. Dick Wolf shared that next season of "Chicago PD" will be different saying, "We have a new showrunner, new writers, they are still hiring them. Then we will start creating ideas. It’s too early to tell [what will happen next]."
With the news recently coming out that "Chicago Justice" wasn't renewed, the fans can't help but wonder if "Chicago PD" is going to end up with the same fate.
The fact that Sophia Bush is leaving means that they are going to have to bring in a strong female lead that fans will fall in love with the way that they did her. She is not going to be easy to replace that is for sure. Sophia Bush fans followed her over from "One Tree Hill" to "Chicago PD" and are going to miss her on the show.
