Fans are understandably emotional about the long-time cast member's exit—and so is his One Chicago family. A few of his co-stars took to Twitter to recognize Soffer.

"To cut a long story, it will never again ..," LaRoycehawkins, who plays Officer Kevin Atwater," captioned an Instagram photo featuring a series photos of Soffer.

"Jesse, I love you, dude," tweeted Marina Squerciati, aka Officer Kim Burgess. "I cried a lot in real life so you know it's real social media stuff. SO MANY TEARS. #crybabyandproudofit #ChicagoPD."

Benjamin Levy Aguilar, a new cast member (Dante Torres), also posted a touching Instagram caption. "Don’t really know where to start.. Art does imitate life I guess. He said that he was embraced by you off-screen when he first saw me on the show. "Thank you for being so generous and encouraging me to create. Your story and journey are inspiring. I am grateful to call you a friend. Im gonna miss you bro ♥️."

Chicago Med's Nick Gehlfuss, who plays Soffer's on-screen brother, Dr. Will Halstead, even shared a special video message for the actor.

"Do you recall when you first welcomed me into this franchise?" He said. "I will never forget how kind, patient, helpful and kind you were. It was difficult at the time, but you made it much easier. We have a wonderful relationship and we continue to be friends.

So what will Chicago P.D. What will Chicago P.D. without Halstead look like? Amy Morton (Trudy Platt) gave NBC Insider a little insight.

"It’s quite a shakeup," sHe said. "Especially since Jesse has been there from the beginning, and this season is our tenth. So it’s a very big shakeup. Benjamin Aguilar is our newest member. He's a great actor, a newbie on the team, as well as a newbie officer. He was straight out of the academy. And that dynamic I think is going to be really interesting because he’s very, very different than anybody else on the team."

Watch Chicago P.D. on NBC Wednesdays at 10/9c and next day on Peacock.
