Winnipeg’s Brady Oliveira became the sixth CFL rusher in league history to pass 6,000 yards during a July 24, 2026 game against Calgary in a night game. He opened the second quarter of the contest with a 45-yard score, starting his team's offense, effectively energizing the fans. No other active Canadian running back has done this much yardage so far, making Oliveira a unique talent, creating a new benchmark. Oliveira hasn’t missed a start since 2017, exemplifying his durability, proof of his consistency. He now leads all current CFL rushers in career yards, solidifying his position at the top, exceeding his rivals. Winnipeg still tries to make the playoffs this year, aiming for a postseason berth, even with stiff competition.
