If Remmers is on the roster Week 1, his salary is guaranteed for the entire season, so if the Chiefs were to cut him after Week 1, they'd take a Dead Money hit of $887,500. The same holds true for the others I listed.

That in no way guarantees a roster spot for Remmers.
I agree that he could be cut, but according to spotrac.com that $887,500 is guaranteed, so it would be dead money.

Mike Remmers signed a 1 year, $1,187,500 contract with the Kansas City Chiefs, including a $137,500 signing bonus, $887,500 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $1,187,500. In 2020, Remmers will earn a base salary of $1,050,000 and a signing bonus of $137,500, while carrying a cap hit of $887,500 and a dead cap value of $887,500.
The Chiefs currently have $10,255,709 of dead money with Eric Berry and Cameron Erving making up most of that.

If it comes down to keeping the better younger OL rather than Mike Remmers, I'm sure Chiefs swallow the dead money, but it is something that the Chiefs have to consider.
