“	One Night. One Heart.	”
–Chicago P.D. Season 9 tagline

Chicago P.D. season 9 premiered on September 22, 2021 and concluded on May 25, 2022 on NBC.

At the center of Chicago P.D. is Sgt. Hank Voight, who is at ground zero against the war on crime in Chicago and is fiercely determined but yet complicated.

His close-knit team of detectives share his passion for keeping the city safe, including Det. Jay Halstead, a committed and ethical detective who previously served in Afghanistan; Officer Adam Ruzek, a quick thinker who often leads with his heart; Officer Kim Burgess, a fearless former patrol officer whose research and astute observations often lead the team in the right direction; Officer Kevin Atwater, a bright and quietly charismatic member of the team; and Det. Hailey Upton, a seasoned detective whose tough demeanor belies her complicated emotions.

Desk Sgt. Trudy Platt runs a tight precinct with a firm hand, although she lets her wry sense of humor shine through from time to time.

This season will find the team tested in new ways with a new chief of police and the constant challenges they face with determined criminals.
