Barnsley (loan)
On 26 February 2016, he joined League One side Barnsley until the end of the 2015–16 season; "Tykes" manager Paul Heckingbottom said that the club were lucky to sign Chapman. He made his debut in the Football League the following day, coming on for Lloyd Isgrove 73 minutes into a 2–1 win over Crewe Alexandra at Gresty Road. He scored his first senior goal on 5 March, in a 3–1 victory over Walsall at the Bescot Stadium. On 3 April, Chapman was a late substitute as Barnsley won the 2016 Football League Trophy Final. Chapman was in the squad that won the 2016 Football League play-offs at Wembley Stadium on 29 May.

Sheffield United (loan)
On 12 August 2016, Chapman joined Sheffield United on a season-long loan. He scored his first goal for the club in a 1–0 win over Bristol Rovers on 27 September 2016. Chapman then went on to score the first hat-trick of his professional career in a 6–0 FA Cup win against Leyton Orient. However, in November 2016 he picked up an injury that would lead to the end of his loan spell with the Blades in January 2017. It was agreed on 31 January 2017 that his loan spell would be renewed and he would rejoin the Blades upon his rehabilitation.

Blackburn Rovers (loan)

Three days later, in what Crewe Alexandra manager David Artell described as "a horrific tackle", Chapman broke the leg of Crewe forward Oliver Finney; he was yellow-carded for the foul, though Artell said the referee’s assessor thought it "was probably a red card [offence]". He scored seven goals in 24 appearances for the Shropshire side.

Burton Albion (loan)
