He will play Jeffrey Grant, an enthusiastic college student looking to experience everything life has to offer, until he's caught in a Kaska-esque DNA trip, accused of murdering a female classmate he swears he's never met.

Brothers & Sisters vet Luke MacFarlane will appear on NBC's midseason drama series The Night Shift. He will play Rick Lincoln, a soldier who just got back from Afghanistan and arrives at San Antonio Memorial Hospital. He also has a close connection to Drew (Brendan Fehr).
