Michael Floyd is ready to resume his up-and-down NFL career.
The Vikings on Monday activated the veteran wide receiver to the 53-man roster, releasing running back Stevan Ridley in a corresponding move.
Floyd missed the first four games of the season while serving a suspension for violating the NFL Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse.
Floyd tested positive for alcohol while on house arrest but said the positive test was due to his consumption of Kombucha tea, which he didn't realize contained alcohol.
Floyd reportedly enjoyed a strong training camp, but now joins a receiving corps flush with talent. Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen have been marvelous this season, while the team continues to hold out hope for second-year pass-catcher Laquon Treadwell.
