Bernard-Converse (knee) did not participate at the Giants' practice Thursday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Bernard-Converse is dealing with a nagging knee problem, and he has been sidelined at practice as a result. The cornerback is competing for a spot on New York's initial 53-man roster, and he still has over a week to return to practice before the team's preseason opener Aug. 15 versus Minnesota.
