Vikings' Michael Floyd reportedly tests positive for alcohol during house arrest

New Vikings receiver Michael Floyd has been flagged for failed alcohol test while he's under house arrest, according to TMZ.

"We are aware of the situation involving Michael Floyd and are looking into the matter. We are still gathering facts and will withhold any further comment at this time," the Vikings said in a statement released Friday.

Floyd, a St. Paul native who starred at Cretin-Derham Hall, was allowed to transfer his house arrest to Minnesota, therefore allowing him to be a full participant with the Vikings.

Floyd was arrested and charged with extreme DWI last year after being found passed out at the wheel of his car.
