In "The Chance to Forgive", while performing an evacuation on a house fire, he was shot in the neck and severely wounded. In a twist, the guns were inside the house and the ammunition was being fired due to the fire. He was eventually taken to Chicago Med, where Dr. Ethan Choi tells everyone that the bullet is lodged near his spinal cord and operating could cause serious problems. The owner of the guns won't be charged, since he owned them all legally and didn't intentionally hurt Otis. At the end, Otis got through his surgery in one piece. Choi sticks his head into the room and realizes that Otis can't feel anything in his toes.
