Floyd would describe himself as a "country boy" who grew up in rural Georgia and spent most of his time outside. As a child, he would spend the summers picking watermelons in the fields surrounding his hometown to earn money. He attributes much of who he is and his success on the field, to the hard work he put in during those summers in the Georgia heat. "I knew hard work – like really hard work." Floyd said. "Football really isn't anywhere near as hard as filling up a bus full of watermelons."
