LaRoyce Hawkins - Kevin Atwater
LaRoyce Hawkins reprises his role as Officer Kevin Atwater of the CPD Intelligence Unit.
Much of the main focus of Season 12, Episode 3 is centered around Kevin's personal life as he continues to juggle his work, his family, and his building tenants.
After meeting Val inside the bar and clearly hitting it off, he was kicking himself for not getting her number.
Thankfully, the next day, he meets Val again, but it is for work this time after the lone witness of the armed robbery suffers from PTSD.
Kevin and Val bicker like an old couple during the case and they eventually find their ground which leads to an unsurprising kiss at the episode's end.
Hawkins has credits in The Express, South Side, and Ballers.

Natalee Linez - Val
Natalee Linez joins the cast of Chicago PD Season 12 as Val, a forensic psychologist who assists the 21st District Intelligence Unit with their new case about an armed robbery.
Val meets Atwater inside a bar the night before. The pair hit it off after their respective dates didn't show up (to be fair, Atwater is waiting for his brother).
Val and Atwater then (unexpectedly) work together on the case. Although they are sometimes not on the same page, it is clear that romance looms over the pair.
Linez starred in Siren, Hawaii Five-0, and Power Book III: Raising Kanan. She is also a cast member of Tell Me Lies Season 2 where she portrayed Lydia.
