The Facts:
Proehl will put retirement on hold and return for one more season, his 16th in the NFL. Proehl, who turned 37 on Monday, had been contemplating retirement since late last season, but decided to play a final year after a lengthy meeting with Panthers coach John Fox. Proehl also said he received numerous phone calls from his teammates, all urging him to return to Carolina.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Panthers will need his veteran leadership since Muhsin Muhammad was released earlier this month in a salary cap move. Proehl ranked third on the Panthers last season with 497 yards receiving. But he was held without a touchdown for just the second time in his career.
