Stir brown sugar, 1-1/2 teaspoons salt, 1/4-teaspoon pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley, dill, and paprika together in small bowl. Season chicken thighs with rub.
Microwave edamame and corn according to package directions, cooking one bag at a time. Rinse edamame with cold water to cool. Remove and discard edamame shells.
Spray cold grates of grill with grilling spray and heat to medium. Grill chicken thighs until charred and no longer pink in center (165°F), 10 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally.
Place a large cast iron skillet on grill grates. Add chopped bacon to pan and cook until crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Cook bell pepper and onion in bacon grease until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in corn, edamame, vinegar, 1/4-teaspoon salt, 1/8-teaspoon pepper, and cayenne pepper.
Remove succotash from heat, top with grilled chicken thighs, and garnish with bacon and green onions before serving.
If you don't have a cast iron skillet and want to make your succotash on the stove top over medium heat, that works great too!
