Currently, Jason Peters is on the Practice Squad, which means his "official" contract is $358,200, which breaks down to $19,900 per week over an 18 week season. I believe that is the veteran maximum. We won't know what the "unofficial" agreement is until the Cowboys activate him to the active roster.

I expect that he'll get a veteran minimum contract of $1.12 million ($65,882 per game), plus roster bonuses for each week that he is on the active roster, plus an additional roster bonus if he's active for minimum of (X) number of games.
Note - This is NOT his contract, but just an example of what a contract could look like:
$__39,800 - Week 1 & Week 2: $19,900 each game on the practice squad
$_988,235 - Weeks 3-18: Pro-rated share of 10+ year veteran minimum at $1.12M
$_750,000 - Weekly Roster bonuses of $50,000 per game = 15 x $50,000
$_500,000 - One-time Roster bonus if he's active for 8 games
$2,278,035 - Total salary if he's on the active roster for 15 games.
He could get additional performance bonuses for playing 30 snaps in a game, or for starting games, that could push his total compensation up close to $3M, say $50K per game for the maximum of an additional $750K for 15 games.
