It sounds as if Chase still requires activation of some, but not all, cards:

If required, you may also receive a set of instructions for activating the card. If your credit card requires activation, you may have various activation methods to choose from, such as over the phone or through your credit issuer's mobile app.

In my experience there is no problem using cards that have not been activated, but I have no specific recollection of doing this with a Chase card.
