The quality ca n’t make a switch to a headman unless we were mysterious into TV falsehoods . I ’m not going to let him do that . He has to become a captain , and then you got to go through a whole thing . I recall that the character might be able to make the conversion . I do n’t know . Who have it away ? They may put me in chief and then fire me as a chief . We ’ll see .

Why Boden Chose Hermann To Be His Chicago Fire Season 13 Replacement

Hermann Wasn’t Boden’s First Choice As Firehouse 51’s Next Leader

Initially , Boden was remember of choose Severide as his successor , which made gumption , since he stepped in as ranking officer while the Firehouse 51 top dog was out of office . Eammon Walker ’s character asked Severide what he thought about his experience , effectively showing Boden that Severide was n’t the piece for the occupation because he did n’t specially enjoy the counseling part of it . alternatively , however , it was Engine 51 ’s Commanding Officer who had a knack for it , hence why Boden officially chose Hermann to become Chief . Even then , however , the route to this was already long .

That said , there were still Leslie Townes Hope thatChicago Fireseason 13would regain a way to make the set - up work . There areso many benefit to having Hermann put back Boden . For starters , it would make the passage easy for the rest of the squad . Boden had been the house ’s unwavering and principled leader for 12 seasons . Replacing him would be very unmanageable . While Hermann will not be able to fill Boden ’s shoe right away , at least Firehouse 51 is assured that they have someone who is fully institutionalize and patriotic to all of them .

With Hermann becoming Firehouse 51 ’s novel drawing card now ruled out , the motion now shifts as to who Boden ’s replacement may be inChicago Fireseason 13 . NBC and Wolf Entertainment are reportedly casting someone new to join the house . Depending on what the writers are planning for the show , this fresh character can either be very helpful or detrimental to the overall wellness of the squad .
