Eric Graise, who plays Bobby on the CBS drama Tracker, has been noticeably absent from several recent episodes, leaving fans wondering about his status on the show. In Season 2, Episode 15, the series finally addressed his character’s disappearance and gave viewers a brief update.
Here’s what we know so far about Eric Graise’s Bobby in Tracker Season 2
Did Eric Graise’s Bobby return in Tracker Season 2 Episode 15?
No, Eric Graise’s character Bobby did not return in Tracker Season 2, Episode 15.
However, the episode finally acknowledges his ongoing absence and provides an in-universe update on his situation, offering hope for his eventual return.
In Episode 15, titled “The Grey Goose,” Colter Shaw (Justin Hartley) asks Randy (Chris Lee) if he’s heard from Bobby. Randy responds that Bobby is currently dealing with personal matters, specifically the funeral of a close friend who was like a brother to him (via US Weekly.) He notes that Bobby has a tendency to withdraw during emotional times and hasn’t been responding to messages. Despite Colter’s attempts to reach out, he hasn’t heard back, but Randy reassures him that Bobby just needs time and promises to help him return when he’s ready.
This marks the first time in six episodes that the show directly references Bobby’s absence, which has been noticeable to longtime viewers. Since early in Season 2, Randy has stepped in to support Colter in his investigations, quietly replacing Bobby without much narrative explanation until now. The update serves both as an acknowledgment of fan concern and as a narrative bridge, keeping Bobby’s character alive in the storyline while allowing for his temporary off-screen presence.
Although Bobby doesn’t appear physically in this episode, the mention of his situation suggests his absence is temporary rather than a permanent departure from the series. Cast members, including Fiona Rene, have hinted that Bobby will return before the season ends, adding to the anticipation of his comeback.
