Welcome to your Morning Cup of Joe, an eye-opener to help Joe’s readers ease into their busy workday with a few football links, wacky news and a pleasant distraction.

Distraction of the Day

The big trade yesterday between the Dolphins and Steelers broken down. [PFT]

Winners and losers in the Dolphins-Steelers trade. [CBS]

Is Las Vegas tight end Mike Mayer now available? [Yahoo!]

Long shot picks for league awards. [NFL]

Joe Burrow and Gracie Hunt? Joe is a little suspicious of this video. Just because they were in the same party van in Miami … LOL! But hey, this is a smart move by Burrow (if true). Very smart. If Burrow plays his cards right, he’ll be running the Chiefs someday. What’s funny about this is Burrow is loathed in Kansas City. Now the hated Burrow (could be) dating the owner’s billionairess, beauty queen daughter? Curiously, Gracie recently removed all the photos from her Instagram account of her former college quarterback boyfriends (not to be confused with her former college flame, igit Drew Lock). One of those exes was Trent Green’s son. This is the 21st century sign she’s unattached. So clearly she has a thing for quarterbacks. The NFL loves drama! This will spice up things before training camp. [TikTok]

Colleges now discussing letting players unionize so schools can lasso the wild, wild west of constant transferring. It took how many years for these learned pinheads to figure this out? And they’re supposed to be teaching the next generation’s leaders of America? smh Joe’s been beating the table about letting college players collectively bargain for years. [Awful Announcing]

Dude, how about wearing a jock? Or maybe buy a new one. smh [Outkick]

Awesome! Tarpon Springs football coach Jeremy Frioud made his pro rasslin’ debut over the weekend. Joe knows Frioud and let Joe tell you, his personality just screams “rasslin.'” LOL So cool. [On3]

SpaceX looks to be building a plant of some sort in Manatee County. [Bradenton Herald]

New York fireman suspended for giving hot girls rides on a firetruck. So long as there’s no fire, what’s wrong with that? Good community relations. What, he should have given rides to ugly chicks? What’s the point of that? [New York Post]
