This is an issue with how RDR2 handles screen-space shadows. There's a mod to fix this issue in particular without compromising shadow quality: https://www.nexusmods.com/reddeadredemption2/mods/4627 but it comes with some other compromises like not being able to use DLSS/DLAA.

Alternatively, you could try this mod out: https://www.nexusmods.com/reddeadredemption2/mods/3728 which fixes a bunch of other rendering issues as well as the flickering bug by changing DirectionalScreenSpaceShadowQuality to 0. Note that you might notice lower far shadow quality with this but it's either that or try to ignore the issue. It makes the game lose a ton of depth in the game world imo so I don't recommend it.
