Ruben Hyppolite has been placed on injured reserve by the Chicago Bears after going unclaimed on waivers, according to Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports. Hyppolite was among the players who were waived and released on Sunday during the NFL's roster cutdown period. The Bears waived Hyppolite with an injury designation after getting hurt during training camp.
Hyppolite was a 2025 fourth-round pick out of Maryland and was seen by many draft experts as a reach. He didn't see much playing time as a rookie and when he eventually got on the field, injuries limited him. In seven games, Hyppolite totaled six tackles.

Going into the 2026 season, Hyppolite was competing with players such as Jack Sanborn and rookie Keyshaun Elliott for one of the reserve linebacker roles. He had seven tackles in two preseason games.
