The New York Giants let a former draft pick from their crosstown team go on Friday, designating cornerback and former New York Jets draft pick Jarrick Bernard-Converse as waived due to injury.
“Giants Jarrick Bernard-Converse waived/injured,” NFL reporter Aaron Wilson wrote on his official X account on Friday.
Bernard-Converse, 6-foot-1 and 205 pounds, was a 6th-round pick (No. 204 overall) by the Jets in the 2023 NFL Draft. He played 2 seasons for the Jets before splitting the 2025 season between the Cleveland Browns and the Giants.
Transferred to LSU for Final College Season
Bernard-Converse played 4 seasons for Oklahoma State and was an All-Big 12 pick in 2021 before transferring to LSU for his final season.
“Bernard-Converse has spent a majority of his snaps as either an off-man or press-man cornerback, but he’ll likely have to make a switch to safety in order to compete for a roster spot in the future,” NFL Draft analyst Lance Zierlein wrote in his 2023 pre-draft evaluation. “He’s big and strong, but he needs to become more of a run-through finisher than drag-down tackler. Sticky hips in transitions are a major concern relative to coverage tasks in space, and he fails to show the desired level of instincts he might need to range over the top as a pro.”
