Why a SEAL Team star left the series

Deadline

Addressing this week's exit, showrunner Spencer Hudnut said in a statement: “Our show strives to be as authentic as possible to the experiences of our service members, and similar to real life, SEAL Team units change and evolve so in our show some of the characters move on as well. Over the last 3 seasons, we’ve seen how war takes a toll not just physically but mentally and emotionally. In this new 4th season, many of our characters will be at a crossroads and confronting tough decisions in their careers." ALSO: SEAL Team adds a canine superhero as another retires.
