Storylines

Chase is the son of Aiden Jennings and a classmate of Ciara Brady's, who he constantly picks on.

Chase and Ciara eventually became friends when Aiden and Ciara's mom became a couple. Unbeknownst to Chase, he had accidentally shot and killed his mother, Meredith, when he was playing with her gun. Aiden hid the evidence to protect Chase from the truth.

In October 2015, a teen aged Chase (recast with Jonathan McClendon) phoned Aiden and said he forgot the keys to the house. Chase was then approached by Andre DiMera, who said he was a friend of Aiden's. When Aiden saw Andre, he gave Chase his keys and sent him home.

Aiden and Hope got married with Chase and Ciara by their respective parents side. Afterwards, Ciara and Chase went for a walk and talked about their new relationship as step siblings. Chase and Ciara saw a jacket in the window, and Ciara said if he liked it she could steal it for him. Chase thought she was joking, and was stunned when Ciara was about to open the door; realizing she was serious. They were stopped by Doug and Julie.

Chase and Ciara went to see Hope when they learned she was in the hospital. Ciara was happy to see that her father, Bo Brady, was back.

Familiar to many audiences for his recurring role on the comedy series "The Grinder" (Fox, 2015-), Connor Kalopsis began his professional acting career before his age even reached double digits. Born and raised in Ontario, Canada, Kalopsis had an expansive view of the world from a young age, as he traditionally spent the spring term of every school year studying at the International Montessori School in Beijing, China. Consequently, Kalopsis spoke fluent Mandarin, and studied Arabic as well. He began his acting career in 2012 with an appearance on the irreverent comedy series "The League" (FXX, 2009-2016). The very next year, he made his feature film debut in the Jason Bateman comedy "Bad Words" (2013).

By 2014, Kalopsis' star was seriously on the rise, as he appeared in a prominent Adidas commercial alongside NHL Hockey player Mike Cammalleri and joined the cast of the long running soap opera "Days of Our Lives" (NBC, 1965- ). The next year would prove to be even bigger, as the young actor was cast alongside stars Rob Lowe and Fred Savage on the comedy series "The Grinder" (Fox, 2015-). Kalopsis still continued to nurture his hobbies outside of acting, however, practicing the bass guitar and learning to fly a single-engine airplane. Kalopsis also enrolled in a few classes at the University of California Los Angeles, learning about digital media and filmmaking.
