Jets announce signing of sixth-round pick Jarrick Bernard-Converse

The Jets have their first 2023 draft pick under contract. The team announced the signing of sixth-round pick defensive back Jarrick Bernard-Converse.

The Jets took the LSU cornerback with the No. 204 pick in last weekend’s draft. Bernard-Converse started nine games in 2022 for LSU after transferring following four years at Oklahoma State. He brings versatility to the back end of the Jets defense. As general manager Joe Douglas said, “He can play safety, he can play nickel, he can play outside. He’s played a lot of football and obviously, the talent speaks for itself.”

JBC will also compete for a role on special teams, especially early on, while also providing a good depth piece across the board.
