StatVault has the verified college attribution (Western Illinois; Wisconsin), but no parsed college box-score table is present in this profile artifact. The section stays here so every profile has a consistent college-stats landing point without fabricating unavailable rows.

Aaron inherited the New Orleans Saints RB room from Deuce McAllister (2001–2008), and handed it to Mike Karney (2004–2008).
Aaron inherited the Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB room from Warrick Dunn (1997–2008), and handed it to Jameel Cook (2001–2008).
The room is reconstructed from arrival order among durable members (≥4 seasons with the club) at the player’s position group — a lineage by arrival, not a week-by-week depth chart. Distinct from the league-wide positional GOAT torch.
