Many fans speculated whether Johnson’s absence from the show could be due to real-life health issues, or possibly because of a scheduling conflict meaning he might the filming elsewhere. Since then fans have been wondering whether the locker room conversation between the SWAT members was the show dropping a hint that actor Kenny Johnson, who portrays Luca, is leaving SWAT. But looking somber, Deacon said there was an expiration date for everyone on their physically challenging job.ĭeacon’s comments left Victor and Jim in a pensive mood. Victor said he believed Deacon still has decades of youthful health and vigor ahead. Victor Tan (David Lim) teased Deacon, wondering whether he was now “old man Deacon.”īut Deacon went on to explain that little aches and pain we laughed off when we were younger become more difficult to recover from as we age. However, David “Deacon” Kay (Jay Harrington) said it is easy to take a hit and bounce back when you are younger but once you hit 35 years of age it gets harder and harder to return from physical injuries. Towards the end of the show, Chris Alonso (Lina Esco) inquired about Luca (Kenny Johnson) and Jim Street (Alex Russel) assured her that Luca would be back soon because he was “indestructible.”
