The Minnesota Vikings reportedly are supporting Michael Floyd's claim that any alcohol present in drug tests he took while on house arrest came from drinking kombucha tea.

The Pioneer Press reported Saturday that Vikings chief operating officer Kevin Warren wrote a letter of support and sent it to Robert Feinberg, Floyd's attorney. Feinberg submitted the document in a motion requesting that Scottsdale City Judge Statia Hendrix cancel the wide receiver's hearing scheduled for Monday and restore electronic monitoring for the remainder of his 96-day house arrest (five days).

Floyd was ordered to attend the show-cause hearing after a review of alcohol monitoring reports indicated the presence of alcohol in several tests.
