Either way, the Redskins organization will be taking a Cap Hit

But if I understand what was said in another thread a few months ago, it will be a bit less of a Cap Hit in 2020 instead of Alex Smith retiring in 2019. If I am incorrect in any way, please, anyone chime in and please explain.

I believe your statement to be accurate. That is because after the end of year 3 of his contract, all guaranteed monies ($71 million) would have been met already.
