Elijah inherited the Indianapolis Colts LB room from Quentin Coryatt (1992β1997), and handed it to Bertrand Berry (1997β1999).
The room is reconstructed from arrival order among durable members (β₯4 seasons with the club) at the playerβs position group β a lineage by arrival, not a week-by-week depth chart. Distinct from the league-wide positional GOAT torch.
