SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — A police report released Wednesday says wide receiver Michael Floyd had a bloodalcoh­ol level nearly three times the legal limit when arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence and other charges earlier this month in Scottsdale.

Floyd’s blood-alcohol level was measured at 0.217.

Floyd played for the Arizona Cardinals at the time, but the team released him two days after his arrest. New England then claimed him off waivers.

Video of the incident was also released Wednesday by Scottsdale police. It shows a body cam video of an officer observing Floyd’s SUV stopped despite twice receiving green lights. Floyd appears incoherent and had trouble identifyin­g his surroundin­gs.

VIKINGS: Running back Adrian Peterson did not practice Wednesday and his outlook for the game against Green Bay on Saturday is in question.

Peterson said he had “a couple of nicks” that he was getting treatment for and recovering from after playing his first game in three months on Sunday.

Peterson played 12 snaps in his return from surgery for a torn meniscus in his right knee, but Minnesota lost to the Colts, 34-6.

JETS: Quarterbac­k Bryce Petty was a full participan­t at practice and is on track to start New York’s game at New England on Saturday.

FALCONS: Atlanta Pro Bowl WR Julio Jones moved closer to his return from a toe injury by joining full-speed drills in Wednesday’s practice.

PATRIOTS: Rookie QB Jacoby Brissett has been activated after recovering from a right thumb injury.
