RENTON, Wash. (AP) Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin tweeted Thursday that the team ''will honor the country and flag'' in a ''demonstration of unity'' prior to Sunday's season opener against Miami.

When approached in the locker room by reporters, Baldwin declined to elaborate further saying, ''you'll see on Sunday.''

Former Green Beret and one-time Seahawks long-snapper Nate Boyer later tweeted that he had spoken with the Seahawks players about their plans and wrote, ''what the team will do is a powerful sign of unification + respect for the Anthem + those that fight for our Freedom!''
