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