Jessica Knight’s Shocking NCIS Exit: What’s Next for Her Explosive Career?

Although Jessica Knight might be leaving NCIS, her story is far from over, and her career could expand beyond what has already been shown. The NCIS Season 21 finale revealed that Katrina Law’s Jessica Knight might be pursuing a new career as an NCIS REACT Chief Training Officer. NCIS Season 22 will have to reveal the outcome of her decision, as accepting the new job means leaving her team and her boyfriend, Jimmy Palmer.

Jessica Knight, an ambitious character, first joined NCIS in Season 18. Since then, she’s become a popular and trustworthy member of the team. The announcement of Jessica’s potential exit came as a shock, but it doesn’t mean her time with NCIS is ending. She will still be part of the NCIS universe with her new role in REACT, and there could be ways to combine her old role with her new career ambitions.

Becoming an NCIS REACT Chief Training Officer Means New Opportunities

Jessica’s departure has raised concerns about its impact on the team and her relationship with Jimmy, but there are upsides too. The new job is located in Camp Pendleton, California, and involves high security clearances and dealing with tense situations, which might require her to travel across the United States. This role also allows her to expand her career beyond her current position in Washington.

“The position would also allow her to meet new people, and it would give her a position of power which makes sense for her career growth, given how ambitious and courageous she is.”

While details about the position are limited, the REACT role is clearly an upgrade and a promotion from her current position, transitioning from an NCIS Special Agent to a team lead as the Chief Training Officer. This new role offers her a chance to meet new people and holds a position of power, aligning perfectly with her ambitious and courageous nature. Jessica’s best moments in NCIS Season 21 show that she has what it takes to excel in this new role.
