The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... The Redskins had a bounty system for big hits on opponents under former defensive coordinator Gregg Williams that was similar to the one revealed by an NFL investigation of the New Orleans Saints, four players who played under Williams said Friday. The NFL announced Friday that the Saints operated an improper bounty program that paid players as much as $1,500 for hits that injured opposing players. That program was also administered by Williams.

Diehards Line:According to Post staffer Mark Maske, three of the players described a coach who doled out thousands of dollars to Redskins defenders who measured up to Williams' scoring system for rugged play, including "kill shots" that knocked opposing teams'stars out of a game. "You got compensated more for a kill shot than you did other hits," one former player, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Maske. Players said compensation ranged from "hundreds to thousands of dollars," with the biggest sum any player received believed to be about $8,000. ... But wait. There's more: Former Colts HC Tony Dungy told Profootballtalk.com that he believes the Titans had put a bounty on Peyton Manning. "I know they had them in Tennessee," Dungy said. Williams worked for the Oilers/Titans through 2000 under HC Jeff Fisher. The two have been reunited -- for now -- in St. Louis this offseason.
