TEMPE, Ariz. — Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner has undergone arthroscopic surgery on his left hip.
The team said the operation to repair a torn labrum and “clean up some loose fragments” was performed Tuesday by Dr. Marc Philippon in Vail.
Philippon, who operated on Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez’s hip last week, said the surgery went well and Warner’s range of motion with the hip immediately improved.
“Everything went well and I’m feeling great,” Warner said Wednesday. “I began rehab on a stationary bike just a few hours after surgery.”
Warner played with the injury all last season.
Also, defensive end Bertrand Berry agreed to a one-year contract.
“Hochuli rule” under review
NEW YORK — The NFL will look into changing instant-replay rules in hopes of avoiding a repeat of the blown call by referee Ed Hochuli that helped the Broncos defeat San Diego last season.
The competition committee will propose at the league meetings next week that when the ball comes loose when a quarterback is throwing, replay can be used to determine if it is a fumble or an incomplete pass.

The Saints agreed to terms on an undisclosed contract with safety Darren Sharper and also signed tight end Darnell Dinkins to a one-year contract. . . . The Ravens signed backup cornerback Chris Carr and waived veteran CB Samari Rolle.
