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