He failed a drug test (USA Today). He's trying to claim that he was on some allergy meds that caused the failure, but a spokesperson for the lab is basically saying that that's not likely.

He failed a drug test. Or to turn a phrase, "it's just Jeremy being Manny."

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,519634,00.html

This was his response (and to be frank, it has become the standard response of athletes who fail drug tests, including the recent Manny Ramirez cheating):
--quote--
"In my case, I believe that the combination of a prescribed medicine and an over the counter medicine reacted together and resulted in a positive drug test," Mayfield said in a statement. "My doctor and I are working with both Dr. (David) Black and NASCAR to resolve this matter."
--end quote--
