James Harden has been in the news recently for a lot of positive reasons.

Harden was captured on video giving $10,000 to a family in the Bahamas, and his impact in Houston has been fantastic too with him donating $240,000 to the city of Houston to upgrade outdoor basketball courts.

ESPN 97.5's John Granato, Lance Zierlein, and Raheel Ramzanali discuss Harden's philanthropic gestures, and debate if having an ulterior motive for these actions even matters. Rockets Roundtable is presented by Texas Star Grill Shop.

According to multiple reports, the Houston Texans are signing former Cowboys TE Dalton Schultz to a 1-year deal worth up to $9 million.

In 15 games last season, Schulz caught 57 passes and recorded 577 receiving yards with 5 TDs. Over the past 3 years, his numbers are right up there with the top tight ends in the game.

The Texans also added some depth at running back by signing former Bills RB Devin Singletary to a 1-year deal worth up to $3.75 million.

He should be a good fit sharing carries with Dameon Pierce. Singletary rushed for 819 yards last season, with 5 rushing TDs. His ability to catch the football had to be one of the elements of his game that got GM Nick Caserio's attention.

Singletary caught 38 passes for 280 yards last year. With Rex Burkhead no longer under contract, Singletary will be a nice upgrade catching passes out of the backfield for Houston.
