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 in a night game. He opened the second quarter of the match 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, underscoring his position at the top, exceeding his rivals. Winnipeg still tries to make the playoffs this year, aiming for a postseason berth, despite stiff competition.
