'Go time,' he captioned a snap online. 'Very excited to head back into the fray one last time. Thanks to the fans for keeping the flame alive and to Mr. Aaron Korsh for welcoming me back.'

Patrick and co-star Meghan Markle left the program in season seven, which aired in April 2018.

Their characters (Markle played Rachel Zane) were offered jobs in another city and decided the opportunities were too good to pass.
