Sal Hits the Ground Running in ‘Chicago Fire’ Season 14 Premiere

A new face at Firehouse 51 causes tension, while rising chaos in the city brings new challenges to the team. Herrmann stalls on plans of relinquishing his office to Mouch.

For a new firefighter, Sal settles into the team quite quickly, as seen in the images above. The team responds to multiple emergencies, and he can be seen right front and center. Is he overzealous, careless, or both? Whatever it is, his lieutenant Stella Kidd (Miranda Rae Mayo) will have a tough time streamlining him. “Vasquez will prove a real challenge to Kidd, his new lieutenant, as well as to Novak (Jocelyn Hudon), as she tries to get to know this seemingly unknowable guy,” Chicago Fire‘s showrunner Andrea Newman said while introducing the character.
