Dallas center Cooper Beebe was placed on injured reserve with a high-ankle sprain, opening a spot on the roster for defensive end Jadeveon Clowney.

The Cowboys officially signed Clowney to a one-year deal on Monday and added him to the 53-man roster to fill the spot created when Beebe was placed on short-term IR. He is dealing with a high-ankle sprain and could be out 1-2 months, per reports, but Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said the team won't immediately know the precise length of his absence.

"We're hoping that it's on the shorter end of that," Jones said Monday on 105.3 FM of the timeline for Beebe's return. "But there's probably a pretty good chance that he'll end up on IR."

Clowney might not be active this week at Chicago, but is expected to be ready for the Week
