Winnipeg’s Brady Oliveira was named the sixth CFL rusher so far to pass 6,000 yards in a July 24, 2026 game against Calgary in a heated clash. He opened the second quarter of the game 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, leaving Oliveira a unique talent, creating a new benchmark. Oliveira hasn’t missed a start since 2017, showing 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, in spite of stiff competition.
