Of course, this week, Washington tendered ERFA QB Kyle Allen.

Washington has, perhaps, the thriftiest QB room in the NFL right now. Here’s a summary of the team’s scheduled 2021 cap hits at the position (per OverTheCap):

  • Alex Smith (dead cap) $8,600,00
  • Taylor Heinicke $1,593,750
  • Kyle Allen $850,000

The total is $11,043,750 but the dead cap is part of the $71m in guaranteed money already paid to Alex Smith for his three seasons with the team.
