This article seems to say that Peterson hasn't exactly signed yet

Offensive guard Tucker Peterson of Clarendon, Vt. makes it three-for-three for last yea's captains as far as getting a shot at the NFL.
The Washington Redskins called yesterday morning and invited Peterson to take part in mini-camp this weekend.
They had not offered him a contract as of last night.
"They'll put me through some drills and see if they want to sign me a contract," Peterson said. "Right now I'm an unsigned free agent."
The Bears have also expressed an interest in Peterson and if they were to offer a contract, he could go there instead. And if neither of those options work out, the New York Jets have invited him to their camp, which starts next Tuesday.
Peterson intends to drill out at both guard and center in mini-camp. It was tough watching the draft and not being picked and then waiting to hear from teams Sunday night, Peterson said.
"You have your goal right in front of you and can't quite get it and then you wait and wait and you're positive you'll get a call and it doesn't come," he said. "It was frustrating until this morning. Now I'll try to make the most of it."
