It's the type of tackle that severely injured Jordan Travis this last season and a link to the NFL news about it that also discusses the tackling technique in more detail:
The messaging hasn't been great on this, but many consider a hip drop any tackle in which the tackler drops their weight to make a tackle. This is NOT explicitly banned by the new rule. From :
ARTICLE 18. HIP-DROP TACKLE. It is a foul if a player uses the following technique to bring a runner to the ground:
(a) grabs the runner with both hands or wraps the runner with both arms; and
(b) unweights himself by swiveling and dropping his hips and/or lower body, landing on and trapping the runner's leg(s) at or below the knee.
Emphases are added to clarify that elements a and both parts of element b are required for the tackled to be banned. A lot of the reaction seems to be missing this point.
ETA: Quote from NFL Competition Committee chairman Rich McKay:
... this isn't the elimination of hip-drop, this is an elimination of a swivel technique that doesn't get used very often. When it is used, it is incredibly injurious to the runner...

The NFL today is almost like a different game compared to the way it was played back in the day. The players were often bloody and muddy, the quarterbacks weren’t treated like fragile primadonnas, and the logos and lore were legendary. If you are nostalgic for the Gridiron greatness of the past, this sub is for you.
